Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1815 UTC Wed Jul 22 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1700 UTC.

...SPECIAL FEATURE...

Tropical Storm Bertha is centered near 29.8N 88.6W at 22/1500
UTC or 30 nm S of Pascagoula Mississippi, moving WNW at 5 kt.
Estimated minimum central pressure is 998 mb. Maximum sustained
wind speed is 45 kt with gusts to 55 kt. Peak seas are 18 ft.
Scattered moderate and isolated strong convection is occurring
south of the center of Bertha from 25N-29N between 89W-94W. A
westward motion with an increase in forward speed is expected to
resume later today and continue through Friday. On the forecast
track, the center of Bertha will move near or along the Louisiana
and upper Texas coasts through Thursday, and then move farther
inland into Texas on Friday. Weakening is forecast during the next
couple of days, but Bertha could maintain tropical storm
intensity through late Thursday. Swells generated by Bertha will
continue spreading westward along the northern Gulf Coast during
the next few days. These swells are likely to cause life-
threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult
products from your local weather office.

Please read the latest HIGH SEAS FORECAST issued by the National
Hurricane Center at website - https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/MIAHSFAT2.shtml__;!!DZ3fjg!6cUi2Ol9vgJ3TantNiejnubNxVfbkei51o4BKgvkfHiE5-WPZQngYajeTEzpluUKPzb5_R8ZUxonEKA-Xog2VKVliVY$ and the latest

...TROPICAL WAVES...

An eastern Atlantic tropical wave has its axis along 37W from
07N-22N, moving westward around 20 kt. No significant deep
convection is noted with the wave at this time.

A central Atlantic tropical wave has its axis along 50W from
05N-18N moving westward around 10-15 kt. No significant deep
convection is noted with the wave at this time.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic from coastal Senegal at
13N17W and extends southwestward to 10N22W where it breaks for a
tropical wave and trough. The ITCZ starts at 08N39W and extends to
08N48W, where it breaks for another tropical wave. The ITCZ
resumes at 08N51W to 07N58W along coastal Guyana. Scattered
moderate and isolated strong convection is noted from 09N-14N east
of 21W. Isolated moderate convection is occurring from 06N-11N
west of 48W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

Please refer to the Special Features section for details on
Tropical Storm Bertha located about 50 NM north-northeast of the
mouth of the Mississippi River.

Aside from conditions related to Bertha, moderate or weaker winds
and seas of 2-7 ft prevail.

For the forecast, Tropical Storm Bertha is about 50 nm south of
Pascagoula, Mississippi near 29.8N 88.6W at 11 AM EDT, and is
moving west- northwest at 5 kt. Maximum sustained winds are 45 kt
with gusts to 55 kt, and the minimum central pressure is 998 mb.
Bertha will move inland over southeast Louisiana and reach 29.6N
90.3W this evening, then continue to 29.5N 92.7W off southwest
Louisiana by Thu morning. Bertha will continue to move west and
make landfall again over the upper Texas coast late Thu, weaken
to a remnant low over southeastern Texas Fri morning, then
dissipate by Fri evening. Swells generated by Bertha will
continue spreading westward along the northern Gulf Coast during
the next few days. In the wake of Bertha, weak high pressure
centered over the south-central Gulf will be replaced by ridging
associated to a new high center that forms over the NE Gulf
providing for a light to gentle wind flow across the basin,
except for pulsing moderate to fresh winds off the Yucatan
Peninsula and near NE Mexico and the Texas coast. These conditions
are expected to persist through the weekend.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The usual north-south pressure gradient over the Caribbean is
reduced today due to a surface trough just north of Hispaniola. As
a result, there is only a small area of fresh to locally strong
trades just north of Colombia and Venezuela. Seas are 5-9 ft in
that area as well as down fetch over the SW Caribbean. Elsewhere,
trades are moderate or weaker with seas 2-5 ft.

For the forecast, the Atlantic ridge combined with the Colombian
low will support fresh to strong winds with moderate to rough seas
across the south-central Caribbean through the forecast period.
Fresh to locally strong NE to E winds in the Windward Passage will
pulse tonight. Fresh winds will pulse across the Gulf of Honduras
from this afternoon into tonight. Moderate or weaker winds with
slight to moderate seas will prevail elsewhere. Looking ahead,
fresh to strong winds will pulse across the Gulf of Honduras Sat
and Sun

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Surface ridging is located north of the discussion area associated
with an usually far north located Bermuda-Azores High. The
moderate pressure gradient between the ridging and lower pressure
with the ITCZ and monsoon trough is supporting only moderate to
locally fresh trades and seas 4-7 ft across all waters north of
the ITCZ/monsoon trough. The exception are fresh to locally strong
NE winds off of Western Sahara with seas 6-9 ft. There are three
convectively active surface troughs. The first is north of
Hispaniola with scattered moderate convection occurring from
20N-30N between 63W-72W. The second is a trough southwest of the
Azores associated with scattered moderate convection north of
28N between 33W-38W. The third is a trough that may have been
spawned by the tropical wave at 37W and is causing scattered
moderate and isolated strong convection from 09N-16N between
26W-34W. Additionally, an upper-level low is promoting scattered
moderate convection from 21N-29N between 52W-60W.

For the forecast west of 55W, the aforementioned surface trough
north of Hispaniola will move westward reaching the Bahamas Thu
afternoon and to central and South Florida Fri. Scattered showers
and thunderstorms will accompany the trough. Fresh to locally
strong trade winds are expected offshore Hispaniola, including
approaches to the Windward Passage through the forecast period.
Moderate or weaker winds along with moderate seas are forecast
elsewhere. Looking ahead, a cold front will approach the waters
east of northern Florida Sat night through Sun night preceded by
mostly moderate to fresh southwest to winds between northeast
Florida and Bermuda.

0015 UTC Thu Jul 23 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1800 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
2300 UTC.

...SPECIAL FEATURE...

Bertha's center made landfall on the eastern side of St. Bernard
Parish, Louisiana, around 2 pm CDT. At 22/2100, Tropical Storm
Bertha is centered near 29.8N 89.8W or 20 nm SE of New Orleans
Louisiana, moving W at 6 kt. Estimated minimum central pressure
is 1000 mb. Maximum sustained wind speed is 40 kt with gusts to
50 kt. Peak seas are 18 ft. Numerous moderate and isolated strong
convection is occurring SW of the center of Bertha, particularly
N of 25N between 90W and 94W. On the forecast track, the center
of Bertha will move near or along the Louisiana and upper Texas
coasts through Thursday, and then move farther inland into Texas
Thursday night. Little change in strength is expected during the
next day or so, and Bertha is forecast to maintain tropical
storm intensity up until it reaches the upper Texas coast on
Thursday. Bertha is expected to dissipate inland over Texas by
Thursday night or Friday. Bertha is expected to produce total
rainfall amounts of 1 to 4 inches with isolated higher totals of
6 inches through Friday along the central to western Gulf Coast
from Northwest Florida to southern Texas. This rainfall may
produce isolated flash flooding, especially in urban areas. Swells
generated by Bertha will continue spreading westward along the
northern Gulf Coast during the next few days. These swells are
likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.
Please consult products from your local weather office.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave is about to emerge off the west coast of Africa.
Its axis is near 17W based on wave diagnostics. A cluster of
moderate to scattered strong convection follows the wave and is
affecting mainly northern Senegal and the SW part of Mauritania.

A tropical wave is along 40W south of 20N, moving westward around
20 kt. No significant deep convection is noted with the wave at
this time.

Another tropical wave has its axis along 51W south of 16N, moving
westward around 10 to 15 kt. Convection is limited near the wave
axis.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic from coastal Senegal at
13N17W and extends southwestward to 12N26W. The ITCZ starts at
08N42W and continues westward to northern Guyana into eastern
Venezuela. Scattered moderate convection is noted from 10N to
12.5N between 20W and 23W, from 06N to 11N between 32W and 36W
and in the vicinity of 07N50W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

Please refer to the Special Features section for details on
Tropical Storm Bertha located 20 nm SE of New Orleans, Louisiana.
Latest scatterometer data indicate that the fresh to strong
winds outside of the circulation of Bertha cover the waters N of
26N between 88W and 94W. Seas of 8 to 12 ft generating by Bertha
are spreading across the NE Gulf based on a pair of altimeter
passes. Elsewhere, moderate or weaker winds and moderate seas
prevail.

For the forecast, Tropical Storm Bertha will move to 29.6N 91.3W
Thu morning, 29.5N 93.9W Thu afternoon, weaken to a remnant low
near 29.4N 96.9W Fri morning, and dissipate Fri afternoon. Swells
generated by Bertha will continue spreading westward along the
northern Gulf Coast through Thu. In the wake of Bertha, weak high
pressure centered over the south-central Gulf will be replaced
by ridging associated to a new high center that forms over the NE
Gulf providing for a light to gentle wind flow across the basin,
except for pulsing moderate to fresh winds off the Yucatan
Peninsula and near NE Mexico and the Texas coast. These conditions
are expected to persist through the weekend.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The usual north-south pressure gradient over the Caribbean is
reduced today due to a surface trough located just north of
Hispaniola. As a result, fresh to locally strong winds are noted
in the south-central Caribbean, including the Gulf of Venezuela,
as well as over the SW part of the basin. Seas are 8 to 12 ft
with these winds based on altimeter data. Moderate to locally
fresh easterly winds are in the lee of Cuba, with seas of 2 to 4
ft. Elsewhere, trades are moderate or weaker with seas of 2 to 5
ft. An upper-level low spinning over the SE Bahamas is helping
to induce showers and thunderstorms over the SE Bahamas, the
Turks and Caicos Islands, Hispaniola and eastern Cuba.

For the forecast, the Atlantic ridge combined with the Colombian
low will support fresh to strong winds with moderate to rough
seas across the south-central Caribbean through the forecast
period. Fresh to locally strong NE to E winds in the Windward
Passage will pulse tonight. Fresh winds will pulse across the
Gulf of Honduras from this afternoon into tonight. Moderate or
weaker winds with slight to moderate seas will prevail elsewhere.
Looking ahead, fresh to strong winds will pulse across the Gulf
of Honduras Sat and Sun.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A surface trough is analyzed over the western Atlantic and runs
from 29N66W to 21N70W. Fresh to strong winds are on either side
of the trough axis, with moderate seas. An upper-level trough
supports this trough, and is also enhancing convection across a
large area, mainly from 22N to 29N between 52W and 74W. Winds
and seas could be higher near thunderstorms. High pressure
dominates the remainder of the Atlantic forecast region. Its
associated ridge combined with lower pressures over NW Africa is
promoting fresh to strong northerly winds between the Canary
Islands and downwind to about 26N. In addition, the moderate
pressure gradient between the ridge and lower pressure with the
ITCZ and monsoon trough is supporting only moderate to locally
fresh trades and seas 4 to 7 ft across the remainder of the
waters north of the ITCZ/monsoon trough.

For the forecast west of 55W, the aforementioned surface trough
will continue westward reaching the Bahamas Thu afternoon and to
central and South Florida Fri. Scattered showers and thunderstorms
will accompany the trough. Fresh trade winds are expected offshore
Hispaniola, including approaches to the Windward Passage through
Sat night. Moderate or weaker winds along with moderate seas are
forecast elsewhere. Looking ahead, a cold front will approach
the waters east of northern Florida Sat night through Sun night
preceded by mostly moderate to fresh southwest to winds north of
29N and east of 75W.

moderate isolated strong convection is confined to the
monsoon/ITCZ region from 05N to 13N between 32W and 48W.

A tropical wave is E of the Lesser Antilles extending from 08N to
21N and with axis near 53W, moving westward around 10 to 15 kt.
Convection is limited near the wave axis.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic from coastal Senegal at
13N17W and extends southwestward to 09N29W. The ITCZ starts at
08N42W and continues westward to 07N58W. Aside from the convection
associated with the tropical waves, scattered moderate convection
is noted from 08N to 17N between 22W and 31W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

Tropical Storm Bertha is along the Louisiana coast near 29.4N
91.1W, or about 35 nm southwest of New Orleans, Louisiana at 11 PM
EDT. It is moving westward at 10 kt. Maximum sustained winds are
40 kt with gusts to 50 kt, and the minimum central pressure is
1002 mb. Please refer to the Special Features section for further
details on Tropical Storm Bertha. Elsewhere, moderate or weaker
winds and slight to moderate seas prevail.

For the forecast, Bertha will move to near 29.2N 92.8W Thu
morning, move inland to near 29.1N 95.6W Thu evening, then weaken
to a remnant low near 29.0N 98.3W Fri morning, and dissipate Fri
evening. In the wake of Bertha, a high pressure center will become
established over the NE Gulf through Fri before it shifts to the
central Gulf afterward. The high pressure will provide for a light
to gentle wind flow across the basin, except for pulsing moderate
to fresh winds off the Yucatan Peninsula and near NE Mexico and
the Texas coast through the weekend.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The usual north-south pressure gradient over the Caribbean
although reduced due to a surface trough located E of the Bahamas
and extending into Hispaniola continue to support fresh to locally
strong winds in the south-central Caribbean, including the Gulf
of Venezuela. Seas are 5 to 8 ft with these winds. Moderate to
locally fresh easterly winds are in the lee of Cuba, Windward
Passage and E Caribbean along with moderate seas. Elsewhere,
trades are moderate or weaker with slight seas.

For the forecast, the Atlantic ridge combined with the Colombian
low will support fresh to strong winds with moderate to rough
seas across the south-central Caribbean through the forecast
period. Fresh NE winds in the Windward Passage will diminish Thu.
Fresh winds will pulse across the Gulf of Honduras tonight, then
at fresh to strong speeds at night beginning Sat. Moderate or
weaker winds with slight to moderate seas will prevail elsewhere.
Looking ahead, fresh to strong winds will pulse across the Gulf of
Honduras Sat and Sun.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A surface trough extends from near 28N68W to just east of the
Turks and Caicos. A second surface trough is to the east
extending from 22N60W to 28N57W. Both troughs are generating
scattered showers from 21N to 30N between 55W and 75W. Aside from
the rain, the troughs are freshening the winds in the same region
E of the Bahamas. High pressure dominates the remainder of the
Atlantic forecast region. Its associated ridge combined with lower
pressures over NW Africa is promoting fresh to strong northerly
winds between the Canary Islands and downwind to about 29N. Seas
with these winds are moderate to rough. In addition, the moderate
pressure gradient between the ridge and lower pressure with the
ITCZ and monsoon trough is supporting only moderate to locally
fresh trades and seas 4 to 7 ft across the remainder of the waters

Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1215 UTC Thu Jul 23 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 0600 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1015 UTC.

...SPECIAL FEATURE...

Tropical Storm Bertha is centered near 29.0N 92.2W at 23/0900 UTC
or 80 nm SE of Lake Charles Louisiana, moving W at 11 kt.
Estimated minimum central pressure is 1003 mb. Maximum sustained
wind speed is 40 kt with gusts to 50 kt. Peak seas are around 12
ft. Bertha remains a sheared system. Its center re-formed offshore
the coast of southern Louisiana during the overnight hours. A
large area of numerous to strong convection is evident over the NW
Gulf from 26N to 29N between 92W and the Texas coast, and
extending just inland the coast. Bertha is forecast to maintain a
general westward or west-northwestward motion through tonight,
followed by a turn toward the west-southwest on Fri. On this
forecast track, the center of Bertha will move near or along the
Louisiana and upper Texas coasts through this afternoon, and then
move farther inland into Texas this evening and tonight. Bertha is
forecast to maintain tropical storm intensity up until it reaches
the upper Texas coast later today, and is expected to dissipate
inland over Texas by tonight or Fri. Bertha is expected to produce
total rainfall amounts of 2 to 4 inches with isolated totals to 6
inches through tonight along Texas Gulf Coast and South Texas.
This rainfall may produce isolated flash flooding, especially in
urban areas. Swells generated by Bertha will continue spreading
westward along the northern Gulf Coast during the next few days.
These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip
current conditions. Please consult products from your local
weather office.

Please read the latest HIGH SEAS FORECAST issued by the National
Hurricane Center at website - https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/MIAHSFAT2.shtml__;!!DZ3fjg!9d-DntpCBhIaXBl9M5yLebY69CpH_42zerSOGTB48FaCBGHQV5FsMQMRZWWjMFg2h3hjw5szVKJ9aBWuHSuK_NbkPw0$ and the latest

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A far eastern Atlantic tropical wave is near 20W moving westward
at about 10 kt. Isolated showers are near the southern portion of
the wave.

A central Atlantic tropical wave has its axis along 45W from 0N to
22N moving westward at 15 to 20 kt. Scattered moderate convection
is near the southern portion of the wave near the ITCZ.

Another central Atlantic tropical wave is east of the Lesser
Antilles extending along 55W from 08N to 23N. It is moving
westward at 10 to 15 kt. No deep convection is noted with this
wave, only isolated showers near its southern portion.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic from coastal Senegal at
13N17W and extends southwestward to 10N21W and westward to 10N30W,
where it transitions to the ITCZ to 08N47W and to inland South
America at 07N61W. Aside from the convection associated to the
tropical waves, scattered moderate to isolated strong convection
is within 120 nm south of the ITCZ between 36W-40W, and within
60 nm north of the ITCZ between 36W-40W. Scattered moderate
convection is within 180 nm south of the ITCZ between 44W-48W,
within 60 nm of the trough between 23W-26W and within 30 nm north
of the ITCZ between 48W-52W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

Tropical Storm Bertha south of the Louisiana coast near 29.0N
92.2W, or about 95 nm southwest of New Orleans, Louisiana at 5 AM
EDT. It is moving west at 11 kt. Maximum sustained winds are 40 kt
with gusts to 50 kt, and the minimum central pressure is 1003 mb.
Please refer to the Special Features section for further details
on Tropical Storm Bertha. Elsewhere, moderate or weaker winds and
slight to moderate seas prevail for the next few days as high
pressure becomes established over the NE Gulf.

For the forecast, Bertha will move to near 29.3N 94.1W this
afternoon, then move inland Texas and weaken to a tropical
depression near 29.0N 97.0W late tonight, weaken further to a
remnant low near 28.5N 100.1W Fri afternoon and dissipate Sat
morning. In the wake of Bertha, a high pressure center will become
established over the NE Gulf through Fri, then shift to the
central Gulf. The high pressure will provide for a light to gentle
wind flow across the basin, except for pulsing moderate to fresh
winds off the Yucatan Peninsula and near NE Mexico and the Texas
coast through the weekend.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The usual north-south pressure gradient over the Caribbean,
although reduced due to a surface trough that is located east of
the Bahamas and extends into the Windward Passage, continue to
support fresh to locally strong winds in the south-central
Caribbean, including the Gulf of Venezuela. Seas are 5 to 8 ft
with these winds. Moderate to locally fresh easterly winds are in
the lee of Cuba, Windward Passage and over the eastern Caribbean
along with moderate seas. Elsewhere, trades are moderate or weaker
with slight seas.

For the forecast, the Atlantic combined with the Colombian low
will support fresh to strong winds with moderate to rough seas
across the south-central Caribbean through the forecast period.
Fresh NE winds in the Windward Passage will diminish today. Fresh
winds in the Gulf of Honduras will diminish this morning, then
pulse at fresh to strong speeds at night beginning on Sat.
Moderate or weaker winds with slight to moderate seas will prevail
elsewhere.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A surface trough extends from near 29N70W to the southeastern
Bahamas and to the Windward Passage. A second surface trough is
to the east extends from 29N59W to 23N62W. Both of these features
are accompanied by scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms
from 21N to 30N between 55W and 75W. Aside from described shower
and thunderstorm activity, the gradient between the troughs and
high pressure to the north and northeast is sustaining fresh
trades over the waters south of about 23N and east of 75W.
A weak low pressure of 1022 mb is near 32N36W, with a trough to
29N42W. Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms are along and
within 30 to 60 nm of the trough.

High pressure dominates the remainder of the Atlantic forecast
region. Its associated ridge combined with lower pressures over NW
Africa is promoting fresh to strong northerly winds between the
Canary Islands and downwind to about 29N. Seas with these winds
are moderate to rough. In addition, the moderate pressure gradient
between the ridge and lower pressure associated to the ITCZ and
monsoon trough is supporting only moderate to locally fresh trades
and seas of 5 to 7 ft across the remainder of the waters north of
the ITCZ/monsoon trough.

For the forecast west of 55W, the aforementioned surface trough
will continues eastward to central and South Florida Fri.
Scattered showers and thunderstorms will accompany the trough.
Fresh trade winds are expected offshore Hispaniola, including
approaches to the Windward Passage through Sat night. Moderate or
weaker winds along with moderate seas are forecast elsewhere.
Looking ahead, a cold front will approach the waters east of
northern Florida Sat night through Sun night, preceded by fresh to
strong southwest winds north of about 28N and east of 75W.

Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
0015 UTC Fri Jul 24 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1800 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
2300 UTC.

...SPECIAL FEATURE...

Tropical Storm Bertha is moving inland over eastern Texas. Heavy
rains are spreading across portions of coastal Texas. At 23/2100
UTC, Bertha is centered near 29.8N 94.7W at 23/2100 UTC or 30 nm
N of Galveston Texas, moving WNW at 11 kt. Estimated minimum
central pressure is 1006 mb. Maximum sustained wind speed is 35
kt with gusts to 45 kt. On the forecast track, the center of Bertha
will move across portions of eastern Texas during the next several
hours. Bertha is expected to gradually weaken, and it is forecast
to dissipate tonight or on Friday. Bertha is expected to produce
total rainfall amounts of 1 to 3 inches with isolated totals to
4 inches into tonight along the Texas Gulf Coast and South Texas.
This rainfall may produce isolated flash flooding, especially in
urban areas. Swells generated by Bertha will continue to affect the
Louisiana and Texas coast through tonight. These swells are
likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.
Please consult products from your local weather office.

Please read the latest HIGH SEAS FORECAST issued by the National
Hurricane Center at website - https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/MIAHSFAT2.shtml__;!!DZ3fjg!5XSvaPQlsIQ3h8ZKkMAU58YUw-JXxAsTaUlLZIRbNvHOv6YBJpQh02JYvpXeqhroTYO9EoY7bRoxQVgdUcJ3JGleKfc$ and the latest
Bertha NHC Forecast/Advisory and Public Advisory at https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.hurricanes.gov__;!!DZ3fjg!5XSvaPQlsIQ3h8ZKkMAU58YUw-JXxAsTaUlLZIRbNvHOv6YBJpQh02JYvpXeqhroTYO9EoY7bRoxQVgdUcJ3nY5w_xU$ for more details.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave is just E of the Cabo Verde Islands along 22W,
moving westward at 10 kt. Scattered showers, with embedded
thunderstorms, are noted near the southern end of the wave axis,
mainly from 06N to 10N between 20W and 25W.

Another tropical wave has its axis along 46W, moving westward at
10 to 15 kt. An area of showers and thunderstorms is noted E of
the wave axis affecting mainly the waters from 10N to 15N between
37W and 42W

A third tropical wave is east of the Lesser Antilles along 58W
moving westward at 15 to 20 kt. Convection is limited near the
wave axis at this time. The wave will move across the Lesser
Antilles tonight, and over the eastern Caribbean on Fri.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
Senegal near Dakar and continues SW, then W to near 10N31W. The
ITCZ extends from that point to 09N56W. Scattered moderate
convection is noted along the ITCZ and W of 40W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

Please refer to the Special Features section for details on
T.S. Bertha forecast to dissipate tonight or on Fri.

Elsewhere outside of Bertha, moderate or weaker winds and slight
to moderate seas prevail as high pressure becomes established
over the NE Gulf.

For the forecast, Bertha will move inland and weaken to a tropical
depression near 29.7N 97.2W Fri morning, and dissipate Fri
afternoon. In the wake of Bertha, a high pressure center will
become established over the NE Gulf through Fri, then shift to
the central Gulf. The high pressure will provide for a light to
gentle wind flow across the basin, except for pulsing moderate to
fresh winds off the Yucatan Peninsula and near NE Mexico and the
Texas coast through the weekend.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The presence of a surface trough north of the basin has reduced
the usual north-south pressure gradient over the Caribbean Sea.
As a result, fresh to strong winds are noted per scatterometer
data in the south-central Caribbean where seas are in the 6 to 8
ft range based on altimeter data. Moderate to fresh trade winds
and moderate seas are over the eastern Caribbean while gentle to
moderate winds with slight to moderate seas prevail elsewhere.
Convection has flared up over most of Cuba, the Cayman Islands,
Jamaica, and parts of Hispaniola, especially in Haiti. An upper
level-low located over the Cayman Islands is helping to induce
this convective activity.

For the forecast, the Atlantic ridge combined with the Colombian
low will support fresh to strong winds with moderate to rough
seas across the south-central Caribbean through the forecast
period. Fresh to strong winds will pulse across the Gulf of
Honduras Sat night and Sun night. Moderate or weaker winds with
slight to moderate seas will prevail elsewhere.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Three tropical waves are moving westward between the W coast of
Africa and the Lesser Antilles. Refer to the Tropical Waves
section for more details.

A surface trough persists over the western Atlantic, and now
extends from 30N75W to the central Bahamas. A large area of
showers and thunderstorms remains associated with this trough
covering the waters from 22N to 31N between 57W and the trough
axis. High pressure dominates the remainder of the Atlantic
forecast region. Fresh to strong northerly winds are between the
Canary Islands due to the pressure gradient between the Atlantic
ridge and lower pressures over NW Africa. Moderate to locally
fresh winds are noted elsewhere E of 70W with moderate seas.
Gentle to moderate winds and slight to moderate seas prevail W
of 70W, including the Bahamas.

For the forecast west of 55W, the aforementioned trough will
continue westward reaching the central and South Florida Fri.
Scattered showers and thunderstorms will accompany the trough.
Fresh trade winds are expected offshore Hispaniola, including
approaches to the Windward Passage through Sat night. Moderate or
weaker winds along with moderate seas are forecast elsewhere.
Looking ahead, a cold front will approach the waters east of
northern Florida Sat night through Sun night, preceded by fresh
to strong southwest winds north of about 28N and east of 75W.

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1500 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

An eastern Atlantic tropical wave has its axis near 29W from
05N-20N, moving westward around 15 kt. Scattered moderate
convection is from 05N-11N between 25W-38W.

A central Atlantic tropical wave has its axis near 51W from
07N-18N, moving westward at 10 to 15 kt. Isolated moderate
convection is occurring from 10N-14N between 49W-54W.

A Caribbean tropical wave has its axis near 64W from 17N
southward, moving westward around 15 kt. No significant deep
convection is occurring in association with the wave today.

A new tropical wave has formed in the W Caribbean at 84W from 18N
southward, moving westward at 10 to 15 kt. Scattered moderate and
isolated strong convection is occurring from 10N-17N west of 76W.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
Mauritania near 18N16W southwest to 06N29W. The ITCZ extends from
06N30W to 09N49W, where it breaks for a tropical wave. The ITCZ
resumes at 09N53W then to 08N60W along coastal Venezuela. Scattered
moderate convection is from 05N-11N between 25W-38W. Isolated
moderate convection is occurring from 10N-14N between 49W-54W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A 1020 mb high pressure is centered over the N Gulf near 29N88W.
Winds across the Gulf are generally light to moderate except for
isolated strong E winds over the Bay of Campeche. Seas are 2-4 ft.
Isolated moderate convection is occurring over the Straits of
Florida this afternoon.

For the forecast, the high pressure over the NE Gulf will shift to
the central Gulf. The high pressure will provide for a light to
gentle wind flow across the basin into the early part of next
week, except for pulsing moderate to fresh winds off the Yucatan
Peninsula through the weekend.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

A moderate pressure gradient between low pressure over northern
South America and high pressure north of the area is forcing fresh
to strong trades over the central Caribbean with seas 6-9 ft.
Elsewhere winds are gentle to moderate with seas 3-5 ft. Scattered
moderate and isolated strong convection is occurring from 10N-17N
west of 76W associated with a tropical wave. Additionally, an
upper-level low is causing isolated moderate convection north of
19N west of 85W.

For the forecast, the pressure gradient between the Atlantic
ridge and the Colombian low will support fresh to strong winds
with moderate to locally rough seas across the south-central
Caribbean through the forecast period. Fresh to locally strong
winds will pulse across the Gulf of Honduras Sat night and
possibly Sun night. Moderate or weaker winds with slight to
moderate seas will prevail elsewhere.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

The Bermuda-Azores High well north of the area along with lower
pressure over the ITCZ and the monsoon trough is forcing only
moderate to isolated fresh trades west of 30W with seas of 4-7 ft.
A larger pressure gradient farther east is forcing fresh to
locally strong NE winds with seas 7-9 ft north of 20N east of
30W. An upper-level low is causing isolated moderate convection
north of 24N between 61W-78W.

For the forecast west of 55W, a trough off the east coast of
Florida will drift west into the peninsula today. Scattered
thunderstorms will accompany the trough across the Bahamas. Fresh
trade winds are expected offshore Hispaniola, including approaches
to the Windward Passage through the weekend. Moderate or weaker
winds along with moderate seas are forecast elsewhere. A cold
front may approach the waters east of northern Florida late this
weekend and stall, preceded by fresh southwest winds north of
about 28N and east of 75W through mid week.

SW to 08N35W. The ITCZ extends from 07N36W to 06N53W. Aside from
the convection associated with the tropical waves, scattered
moderate convection is from 07N to 11N E of 20W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A 1020 mb high pressure is centered over the N Gulf near 29N88W.
A surface trough just offshore the Florida Peninsula is
generating scattered moderate convection in the NE Gulf N of 26N E
of 85W. In the SW Gulf, a surface in the Bay of Campeche is
generating fresh winds. Elsewhere, winds are light to gentle,
with slight seas across the basin.

For the forecast, high pressure will bring gentle to moderate
winds and slight seas to the basin through early next week. Fresh
winds will pulse offshore the Yucatan Peninsula this evening.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The pressure gradient between low pressure over NW Colombia and
high pressure north of the area is forcing fresh to strong trades
over the central Caribbean with seas of 6 to 8 ft. In the E basin,
E winds are moderate to fresh and seas moderate while in the NW
Caribbean winds are moderate or weaker and seas are slight.

For the forecast, the aforementioned pressure gradient will
continue to support fresh to strong winds with moderate to
locally rough seas across the south- central Caribbean through the
forecast period. Fresh to locally strong winds will pulse across
the Gulf of Honduras tonight. Moderate or weaker winds with slight
to moderate seas will prevail elsewhere. Meanwhile, scattered
showers and thunderstorms will persist over much of the western
Caribbean through tonight.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

The pressure gradient between the Azores High and lower pressure
along the ITCZ and monsoon trough is causing moderate to locally
fresh trades along with moderate seas. E of 30W, the gradient
tightens and fresh to strong winds along with rough seas are
impacting waters N of 20N, including near the Canary Islands.

For the forecast west of 55W, the Atlantic ridge will shift
southward this weekend, allowing a cold front to move into the
northern waters between Bermuda and Florida Mon night, before
stalling and dissipating into the middle of next week. Fresh SW
winds will develop ahead of this front, mainly N of 28N.

America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1700 UTC.

...SPECIAL FEATURES...

Agadir Gale Warning: The pressure gradient between a 1032 mb
Azores High and lower pressures over northern Africa currently
support strong to near gale-force NE winds between the Canary
Islands and the coast of Morocco. These winds are confirmed by
scatterometer data from 1100 UTC today. Winds will continue to
increase and reach gale-force later today. Accordingly, Meteo
France has issued a Gale Warning for the Agadir Zone until 26/00
UTC.

For more details, please refer to Meteo-France's website at: wwmiws.wmo.int/index.php/metareas/display/2.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

An eastern Atlantic tropical wave has an axis along 39W, from 08N
to 20N, moving W at around 10-15 kt. Convection near this wave is
discussed in the Monsoon Trough/ITCZ section below.

A tropical wave is moving through the eastern Caribbean and has
an axis along 66W. It is moving W at around 20 kt. No significant
convection is occurring near this wave axis.

A Caribbean tropical wave is along 73W from Haiti to the
Colombia-Venezuela border, moving W at around 10-15 kt. Scattered
moderate convection is occurring near the Gulf of Venezuela and
Lake Maracaibo.

A tropical wave is crossing out of the far western Caribbean into
Central America along 88W, southward from the Gulf of Honduras,
moving W at 5-10 kt. Scattered moderate convection associated
with this wave is impacting waters W of 80W and S of 20N, likely
enhanced by the East Pacific monsoon trough which extends across
the far SW Caribbean.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 16N17W and continues
SW to 09N33W. The ITCZ extends from 09N33W to 07N58W. Scattered
moderate convection is occurring from 04N to 12N between the W
coast of Africa and 45W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A 1020 mb high pressure is centered over the NE Gulf near 27N88W.
A surface trough just offshore the Florida Peninsula is
generating scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms in the NE
Gulf N of 25N and E of 88W. In the SW Gulf, a surface trough in
the Bay of Campeche is generating moderate SE winds. Elsewhere,
winds are light to gentle, with slight seas across the basin.

For the forecast, high pressure centered over the Gulf will bring
gentle to moderate winds and slight seas to the basin through
early next week. Fresh winds will pulse offshore the Yucatan
Peninsula tonight into Sun.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Please refer to the Tropical Waves section for details on any
convection across the Caribbean.

The pressure gradient between low pressure over NW Colombia and
high pressure north of the area is forcing fresh to strong trades
over the central to SW Caribbean with seas of 6 to 9 ft. In the E
basin, E winds are moderate to fresh and seas moderate while in
the NW Caribbean winds are moderate or weaker and seas are slight.

For the forecast, the pressure gradient between the Atlantic
ridge and the Colombian low will support fresh to strong winds
with moderate to locally rough seas across the south-central
Caribbean through the forecast period. Fresh to locally strong
winds will pulse across the Gulf of Honduras tonight. Moderate or
weaker winds with slight to moderate seas will prevail elsewhere.
Meanwhile, scattered showers and thunderstorms will persist over
much of the western Caribbean through tonight.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A surface trough in the W Atlantic combined with upper level
divergence from an upper level trough N of the region are aiding
in the development of scattered moderate convection from 24N to
31N between 67W and 72W, as well as over the central and northern
Bahamas. Scattered moderate convection is also occurring E of the
Lesser Antilles with convergent surface winds in place.
Otherwise, the pressure gradient between the Azores High and lower
pressure along the ITCZ and monsoon trough is causing moderate to
fresh trades along with moderate seas across much of the
Atlantic. E of 30W, the gradient tightens and fresh to strong
winds along with rough seas are impacting waters N of 20N,
including near the Canary Islands where NE winds are strong to
near-gale force. Gentle to moderate or weaker winds and 3-6 ft
seas prevail elsewhere.

For the forecast west of 55W, the Atlantic ridge will shift
southward this weekend, allowing a cold front to move into the
northern waters between Bermuda and Florida Mon night, before
stalling and dissipating into the middle of next week. Fresh SW
winds will develop ahead of this front, mainly N of 28N.

Gale Warning for the Agadir Zone until 26/03 UTC.

For more details, please refer to Meteo-France's website at: wwmiws.wmo.int/index.php/metareas/display/2.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

An eastern Atlantic tropical wave has an axis along 45-46W, from
08N to 22N, moving W at 12-20 kt. A broad mid level cyclonic
circulation can be seen in PW animations. Convection near this
wave is discussed in the Monsoon Trough/ITCZ section below.

A tropical wave is moving into the eastern Caribbean with axis
along 62W-63W, moving W at 15-20 kt. An upper level low is
centered to the NW and is shearing associated convection to the E
of the wave. Scattered moderate convection is noted from 12N to
19N between 55W and 61W.

A central Caribbean tropical wave has been added to the 0000 UTC
surface map, along 73W, moving westward at 15-20 kt, and is well
depicted in PW animations. The wave is moving through a zone of
dry and sinking air across the central basin, and no associated
convection is seen over water at this time.

A Caribbean tropical wave previously along 75W is racing westward
and has nearly merged with the tropical wave ahead of it across
Central America along about 90W.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 12N16W and continues
to 12N23W to 10N37W. The ITCZ extends from 09N38W to 07.5N44W to
05.5N54W. Scattered moderate to strong convection is exiting
Africa from 10N to 17N E of 20W. Scattered moderate isolated
strong convection is occurring from 08.5N to 14N between 20W and
27W, and 08N to 12.5N between 29W and 40W. Scattered moderate
convection is noted from 03N to 11.5N between 40W and 52W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A 1019 mb high pressure is centered over the NE Gulf near 28.5N88W.
Evening thunderstorms across central Florida have shifted westward
to the coast near Tampa Bay and adjacent coastal waters within 60
nm and are weakening quickly. An upper level low is centered over
the Bay of Campeche N of 20N, and is supporting a cluster of
moderate to strong convection shifting westward off the Yucatan
Peninsula and over the eastern Bay of Campeche. The surface high
is promoting light to gentle anticyclonic winds across the basin N
of 21N, where seas are 3 ft or less. Moderate to locally fresh NE
winds are occurring along the W coast of the Yucatan, in associated
with the evening thermal trough there. Seas there area 3 to 4 ft.

For the forecast, high pressure centered over the Gulf will
promote gentle to moderate winds and slight seas to the basin
through early next week. Fresh winds will continue offshore the
western Yucatan Peninsula tonight, and then will pulse to moderate
N winds each evening and night through Tue.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Scattered moderate convection dots the waters of the NW Caribbean
from western Cuba and the Yucatan Channel southward across the
Gulf of Honduras, to just offshore of NE Nicaragua. This activity
is occurring behind a tropical wave now across the eastern
Pacific along about 90W.

The pressure gradient between low pressure over NW Colombia and
the western Atlantic ridge extending into central Florida is
forcing fresh to strong trades over the central to SW Caribbean,
generally S of 16N, where seas are 6 to 9 ft between 72W and 80W.
Across the eastern basin, moderate to fresh easterly trade winds
prevail, with moderate seas of 4 to 6 ft. Across the NW Caribbean,
NE to E winds are moderate or weaker, with slight seas. The
exception there is fresh E wind across the interior Gulf of
Honduras, where seas are locally 6 to 8 ft.

For the forecast, the pressure gradient between the Atlantic
ridge and the Colombian low will support fresh to strong winds
with moderate to locally rough seas across the south-central
Caribbean into Sun. Fresh to locally strong E winds will continue
across the Gulf of Honduras tonight. The ridge will weaken and
shift east by Mon, allowing winds and seas to diminish over the
central Caribbean into mid week. Looking ahead, winds and seas
will increase again across the central Caribbean starting Wed as
the ridge builds north of the area.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A surface trough in the W Atlantic combined with upper level
divergence from an upper level trough N of the region are aiding
in persistent scattered moderate convection from 28N to 31N
between 68W and 72W. Isolated moderate convection dots the
central and northern Bahamas. Scattered moderate convection is
also occurring from the E coasts of the Lesser Antilles to 54W,
behind a tropical wave moving across the eastern Caribbean
described above. Another upper low and surface trough extends
into the north central waters, and is promoting scattered
moderate isolated strong convection from 25N to 29N between 47W
and 59W. Elsewhere at the surface, the pressure gradient between
the Azores High and lower pressure along the ITCZ and monsoon
trough is producing moderate to fresh trades along with moderate
seas across much of the Atlantic S of 26W. E of 33W, the pressure
gradient tightens and is producing fresh to strong NE winds along
with rough seas of 8-10 ft impacting waters N of 18N, including
near the Canary Islands where NE winds are strong to near-gale
force. Gentle to moderate or weaker winds and 3-6 ft seas prevail
elsewhere.

For the forecast west of 55W, the western Atlantic ridge will
shift southeastward through early this week, allowing a cold
front to move offshore the SE U.S. Sun, then stall along about 31N.
SW winds will increase and producing building seas N of 25N
through the middle of next week between this stalled front and
the Atlantic ridge to the east.

with the evening thermal trough there. Seas there area 3 to 4 ft.

For the forecast, high pressure centered over the Gulf will
promote gentle to moderate winds and slight seas to the basin
through early next week. Fresh winds will continue offshore the
western Yucatan Peninsula tonight, and then will pulse to moderate
N winds each evening and night through Tue.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Scattered moderate convection dots the waters of the NW Caribbean
from western Cuba and the Yucatan Channel southward across the
Gulf of Honduras, to just offshore of NE Nicaragua. This activity
is occurring behind a tropical wave now across the eastern
Pacific along about 90W.

The pressure gradient between low pressure over NW Colombia and
the western Atlantic ridge extending into central Florida is
forcing fresh to strong trades over the central to SW Caribbean,
generally S of 16N, where seas are 6 to 9 ft between 72W and 80W.
Across the eastern basin, moderate to fresh easterly trade winds
prevail, with moderate seas of 4 to 6 ft. Across the NW Caribbean,
NE to E winds are moderate or weaker, with slight seas. The
exception there is fresh E wind across the interior Gulf of
Honduras, where seas are locally 6 to 8 ft.

For the forecast, the pressure gradient between the Atlantic
ridge and the Colombian low will support fresh to strong winds
with moderate to locally rough seas across the south-central
Caribbean into Sun. Fresh to locally strong E winds will continue
across the Gulf of Honduras tonight. The ridge will weaken and
shift east by Mon, allowing winds and seas to diminish over the
central Caribbean into mid week. Looking ahead, winds and seas
will increase again across the central Caribbean starting Wed as
the ridge builds north of the area.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A surface trough in the W Atlantic combined with upper level
divergence from an upper level trough N of the region are aiding
in persistent scattered moderate convection from 28N to 31N
between 68W and 72W. Isolated moderate convection dots the
central and northern Bahamas. Scattered moderate convection is
also occurring from the E coasts of the Lesser Antilles to 54W,
behind a tropical wave moving across the eastern Caribbean
described above. Another upper low and surface trough extends
into the north central waters, and is promoting scattered
moderate isolated strong convection from 25N to 29N between 47W
and 59W. Elsewhere at the surface, the pressure gradient between
the Azores High and lower pressure along the ITCZ and monsoon
trough is producing moderate to fresh trades along with moderate
seas across much of the Atlantic S of 26W. E of 33W, the pressure
gradient tightens and is producing fresh to strong NE winds along
with rough seas of 8-10 ft impacting waters N of 18N, including
near the Canary Islands where NE winds are strong to near-gale
force. Gentle to moderate or weaker winds and 3-6 ft seas prevail
elsewhere.

For the forecast west of 55W, the western Atlantic ridge will
shift southeastward through early this week, allowing a cold
front to move offshore the SE U.S. Sun, then stall along about 31N.
SW winds will increase and producing building seas N of 25N
through the middle of next week between this stalled front and
the Atlantic ridge to the east.

Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1215 UTC Sun Jul 26 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 0600 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
0930 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave has emerged off Africa and now has an axis along
19W from 10N to 17N, moving W at 15 to 20 kt. Scattered moderate
convection is noticed from 12N to 15N E of 20W.

A central Atlantic tropical wave has an axis along 47W, from 08N
to 22W, moving W at around 15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is
noted E of this wave from 08N to 12N between 37W and 47W.

An eastern Caribbean tropical wave has an axis along 64W, from
the Virgin Islands into Venezuela, moving W at around 15 kt.
Scattered moderate to isolated strong convection is behind this
wave from 12N to 19N between 54W and 64W, and is impacting much of
the waters near the Lesser Antilles.

A central Caribbean tropical wave has an axis along 74W, moving W
at around 15 kt. No convection is currently associated with this
wave.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 16N16W and continues
to 12N25W to 10N37W. The ITCZ extends from 10N38W to 08N44W and
from 07N49W to 05N54W. Scattered moderate isolated strong
convection is occurring from 09N to 14N between 20W and 27W and
08N to 12N between 29W and 37W. Scattered moderate convection is
noted from 03N to 11N between 49W and 52W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A 1019 mb high pressure is centered over the NE Gulf near 28N87W.
A surface trough over the Bay of Campeche is generating scattered
moderate convection over the SW basin. Light to gentle
anticyclonic winds dominate much of the basin, with moderate SE
winds in the eastern Bay of Campeche, E of the surface through.
Seas are 2 to 4 ft where these moderate winds are ongoing,
otherwise generally 2 ft or less basin-wide.

For the forecast, high pressure centered over the Gulf will bring
gentle to moderate winds and slight seas to the basin into mid-
week.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Convection in the NW Caribbean has dissipated overnight. See the
above Tropical Waves sections for details on convection associated
with a tropical wave in the far eastern basin.

The pressure gradient between low pressure over NW Colombia and
the western Atlantic ridge extending into the eastern Gulf of
America is forcing fresh to locally strong trades over the
central to SW Caribbean, generally S of 15N, where seas are 6 to
8 ft between 72W and 80W. Across the eastern basin, moderate to
locally fresh easterly trade winds prevail, with moderate seas of
4 to 6 ft. Across the NW Caribbean, NE to E winds are moderate or
weaker, with slight seas. The exception there is locally fresh E
wind across the Gulf of Honduras, where seas are moderate ft.

For the forecast, the aforementioned pressure gradient will
support fresh to strong winds with moderate to locally rough seas
across the south-central Caribbean today, with fresh winds in the
Gulf of Honduras. The ridge will weaken and shift east tonight,
allowing winds and seas to diminish over the central Caribbean
into mid week. Looking ahead, winds and seas will increase again
across the central Caribbean starting Wed as the ridge builds
north of the area.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A tight pressure gradient between low pressure over the Saharan
Desert and the 1029 mb Azores high has relaxed enough such that
gale conditions have ended in the vicinity of the Canary Islands
and near the Moroccan coast. As both the low and high weaken
today, strong NE winds will gradually decrease to moderate to
fresh into tonight. These higher winds have generated rough seas
that impact waters from the Canary Islands S to 18N and W to about
35W. These seas will slowly decay below 8 ft through the day.

Convection E of Florida and N of and E of the Bahamas has
generally dissipated overnight, but scattered moderate convection
prevails within about 60 nm either side of a surface trough axis
that extends from 31N45W to 27N52W. The pressure gradient between
the Azores High and lower pressure along the ITCZ and monsoon
trough is producing moderate to locally fresh trades along with
moderate seas across much of the Atlantic S of 26W. Gentle to
moderate or weaker winds and 3-6 ft seas prevail elsewhere.

For the forecast west of 55W, a cold front will move offshore the
SE U.S. today, then stall. SW winds will increase and seas will
build N of 25N through the middle of the week between this front
and the Atlantic ridge to the east.

0015 UTC Sun Jul 26 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1800 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
2305 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

An eastern Atlantic tropical wave has an axis along 20W from 08N
to 17N, moving W at 10-15 kt. No significant convection is noted
near the wave.

A central Atlantic tropical wave has an axis along 50W, from 06N
to 22N, moving W at 15 kt. No significant convection is seen near
this wave.

An eastern Caribbean tropical wave has an axis along 66W, from
the 17N66W southward into Venezuela, moving W at 15 kt. No
significant convection is observed near the wave over the ocean.

A central Caribbean tropical wave has an axis along 75W, moving W
at 15 kt. No convection is currently associated with this wave.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 20N16W and continues
to 10N44W. The ITCZ extends from 10N44W to 07N49W, and then
resumes from 07N50W to 06N55W. Scattered moderate to isolated
strong convection is present from 06N to 13N and between 25W and
35W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms are noted in the Bay
of Campeche, especially off western Yucatan. Similar storms are
found in the eastern Gulf, mainly near Florida. High pressure
dominates the rest of the basin, supporting moderate or weaker
winds and slight seas. However, stronger winds and higher seas are
likely near the mentioned storms.

For the forecast, a ridge will remain in control of the weather pattern
across the Gulf region through at least mid-week, bringing gentle
to moderate winds and slight to moderate seas. Pulsing fresh NE
to E winds are likely each afternoon and evening along and just
north of the Yucatan Peninsula beginning on Mon as a trough develops
daily and drifts westward.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

High pressure north of the islands supports fresh to strong
easterly trade winds and seas of 5-8 ft across the south-central
Caribbean. Moderate to fresh easterly breezes and moderate seas
are found in the north-central Caribbean and Gulf of Honduras.
Elsewhere, moderate or weaker winds and slight to moderate seas
prevail. Afternoon convection has developed over Cuba, Hispaniola,
Jamaica, from Costa Rica to Venezuela, with some of the storms
affecting the nearby waters.

For the forecast, the pressure gradient between the Atlantic ridge
and the Colombian low will support fresh to strong winds with
moderate to locally rough seas across the south-central Caribbean
tonight, with fresh winds in the Gulf of Honduras. The ridge will
weaken and shift east tonight, allowing winds and seas to diminish
over the central Caribbean into mid-week. Looking ahead, winds
and seas will increase again across the central Caribbean starting
Wed as the ridge builds again north of the area.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A couple of surface troughs and divergence aloft support scattered
showers and isolated thunderstorms north of 25N and west of 68W.
Moderate to fresh SW winds and moderate seas are present north of
27N and between 63W and 77W. Moderate to fresh easterly trade
winds and moderate seas are occurring south of 23N and between 60W
and 75W. In the central Atlantic, an upper level trough is aiding
in the development of scattered moderate convection NE of the
Lesser Antilles from 15N to 22N and between 53W and 63W.

The tropical Atlantic is dominated by a broad subtropical ridge
anchored by a 1028 mb high pressure system near the Azores.
Moderate to locally fresh easterly trade winds and seas of 4-8 ft
cover much of the central and eastern Pacific, with the highest
seas evident to the NW of the Cabo Verde Islands. Elsewhere,
moderate or lighter winds and moderate seas prevail.

For the forecast west of 55W, expect fresh to strong SW winds and
moderate to rough seas across the north waters, mainly N of 29N,
most of the week as frontal boundaries remain to the north of
area. A ridge will dominate the remainder of the forecast region
producing mainly gentle to moderate winds and moderate seas.

Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1800 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
2305 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

An eastern Atlantic tropical wave has an axis along 20W from 08N
to 17N, moving W at 10-15 kt. No significant convection is noted
near the wave.

A central Atlantic tropical wave has an axis along 50W, from 06N
to 22N, moving W at 15 kt. No significant convection is seen near
this wave.

An eastern Caribbean tropical wave has an axis along 66W, from
the 17N66W southward into Venezuela, moving W at 15 kt. No
significant convection is observed near the wave over the ocean.

A central Caribbean tropical wave has an axis along 75W, moving W
at 15 kt. No convection is currently associated with this wave.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 20N16W and continues
to 10N44W. The ITCZ extends from 10N44W to 07N49W, and then
resumes from 07N50W to 06N55W. Scattered moderate to isolated
strong convection is present from 06N to 13N and between 25W and
35W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms are noted in the Bay
of Campeche, especially off western Yucatan. Similar storms are
found in the eastern Gulf, mainly near Florida. High pressure
dominates the rest of the basin, supporting moderate or weaker
winds and slight seas. However, stronger winds and higher seas are
likely near the mentioned storms.

For the forecast, a ridge will remain in control of the weather pattern
across the Gulf region through at least mid-week, bringing gentle
to moderate winds and slight to moderate seas. Pulsing fresh NE
to E winds are likely each afternoon and evening along and just
north of the Yucatan Peninsula beginning on Mon as a trough develops
daily and drifts westward.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

High pressure north of the islands supports fresh to strong
easterly trade winds and seas of 5-8 ft across the south-central
Caribbean. Moderate to fresh easterly breezes and moderate seas
are found in the north-central Caribbean and Gulf of Honduras.
Elsewhere, moderate or weaker winds and slight to moderate seas
prevail. Afternoon convection has developed over Cuba, Hispaniola,
Jamaica, from Costa Rica to Venezuela, with some of the storms
affecting the nearby waters.

For the forecast, the pressure gradient between the Atlantic ridge
and the Colombian low will support fresh to strong winds with
moderate to locally rough seas across the south-central Caribbean
tonight, with fresh winds in the Gulf of Honduras. The ridge will
weaken and shift east tonight, allowing winds and seas to diminish
over the central Caribbean into mid-week. Looking ahead, winds
and seas will increase again across the central Caribbean starting
Wed as the ridge builds again north of the area.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A couple of surface troughs and divergence aloft support scattered
showers and isolated thunderstorms north of 25N and west of 68W.
Moderate to fresh SW winds and moderate seas are present north of
27N and between 63W and 77W. Moderate to fresh easterly trade
winds and moderate seas are occurring south of 23N and between 60W
and 75W. In the central Atlantic, an upper level trough is aiding
in the development of scattered moderate convection NE of the
Lesser Antilles from 15N to 22N and between 53W and 63W.

The tropical Atlantic is dominated by a broad subtropical ridge
anchored by a 1028 mb high pressure system near the Azores.
Moderate to locally fresh easterly trade winds and seas of 4-8 ft
cover much of the central and eastern Pacific, with the highest
seas evident to the NW of the Cabo Verde Islands. Elsewhere,
moderate or lighter winds and moderate seas prevail.

For the forecast west of 55W, expect fresh to strong SW winds and
moderate to rough seas across the north waters, mainly N of 29N,
most of the week as frontal boundaries remain to the north of
area. A ridge will dominate the remainder of the forecast region
producing mainly gentle to moderate winds and moderate seas.

resumes from 07N50W to 06N55W. Scattered moderate to isolated
strong convection is present from 06N to 13N and between 25W and
35W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

High pressure of 1018 mb is centered near 26N90W and is supporting
light to gentle variable winds, except along the northern Gulf
coastal and immediate offshore waters where moderate winds are
present. Moderate to locally fresh E winds are also ongoing in the
Bay of Campeche associated with a surface trough that is coming
off the Yucatan peninsula. Aside from the winds, the surface
trough is generating scattered moderate convection where recent
scatterometer data show a pocket of strong E winds.

For the forecast, high pressure will meander about the central
Gulf and weaken through Wed, leading to gentle to moderate winds
and slight to moderate seas. Pulsing fresh NE to E winds are
likely each afternoon and evening along and just north of the
Yucatan Peninsula beginning on Mon as a trough develops daily and
drifts westward. Looking ahead, showers and thunderstorms are
expected to become active across the NE Gulf Wed afternoon through
Thu as a frontal boundary sinks to just N of the area.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Atlantic ridge along 25N-26N and the Colombian low will support
fresh to strong winds with moderate to locally rough seas across
the south-central Caribbean S of 15N tonight, with fresh winds in
the Gulf of Honduras. The ridge will weaken and shift eastward
Mon through Wed, allowing winds and seas to diminish over the
central Caribbean into midweek. Looking ahead, winds and seas
will increase again across the central Caribbean starting Wed as
the ridge builds again north of the area.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A surface ridge extending from a 1025 mb center of high pressure
near 32N41W extends across the Bahamas offshore waters. To the N
of 27N and west of 73W, scattered moderate convection and tstms
are occuring ahead of a cold front. Winds ahead of the front are
moderate to fresh from the SW extending to 63W and N of 27N.
Elsewhere, moderate or lighter winds and moderate seas prevail.

For the forecast west of 55W, the high pressure and associated
ridge in the Western Atlantic will drift eastward and weaken
slightly Mon through Wed. Expect fresh to strong SW winds and
moderate to rough seas across the northern waters, mainly N of
29N, most of the week as sinking frontal boundaries remain just to
the north of area. The Atlantic ridge will building modestly

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1657 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave is in the E Atlantic with axis near 26W,
extending from 09N to 18N, and moving W at 10-15 kt. Isolated
clusters of moderate convection are noted near the wave.

An Atlantic tropical wave is along 56W, extending from 09N to
21N, and moving W at 15-20 kt. No significant convection is
depicted at this time in association with this wave.

A tropical wave is in the central Caribbean with axis along 71.5W
southward from 18N into Venezuela, and moving W at 10 to 15 kt. No
significant convection is depicted at this time in association
with this wave.

A tropical wave is in the SW Caribbean with axis near 80W, from
18N southward to central Panama, and moving W at 15 to 20 kt.
Scattered moderate convection is noted S of 11N between 76W and
83W. Scattered convection is also noted from 16N to 18N along the
wave axis.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 17N16.5W and
continues to 10N49.5W. Scattered moderate isolated strong
convection is along the coast of Africa from 06N to 13N E of 22W.
Scattered moderate convection is depicted from 06N to 13N between
31W and 41W and between 49W and 53W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

An upper level trough along the eastern seaboard of the U.S.
extends southwestward to northern Florida, and scattered showers
and thunderstorms from 27N to 29N and east of 86W. Scattered
moderate convection is found across the Straits of Florida.
Scattered moderate convection is noted across the western Bay of
Campeche. A high pressure of 1017 mb is centered near 26.5N90W and
is supporting light to gentle variable winds, except gentle to
moderate NW winds along the northeastern Gulf coastal and
immediate offshore waters. Gentle to moderate SE winds are also
ongoing in the Bay of Campeche. Seas are 2 to 4 ft across the
basin.

For the forecast, high pressure remaining over the central
Gulf will lead toward generally quiescent conditions for the next
several days. The exception is NE fresh winds just northwest of
the Yucatan peninsula nightly through the end of the week.
Scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue during the next
couple of days over the NE Gulf due to an approaching weak cold
front.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The Atlantic ridge extends westward along 16N-18N, and is
supporting fresh trade winds and seas of 5-8 ft across the
central Caribbean S of 16N. Moderate or weaker winds and slight
to moderate seas prevail elsewhere. An mid level trough is supporting
scattered moderate convection north of 20N between 81W and 84W.

For the forecast, an increasing pressure gradient between the
Colombian Low and high pressure north of the Caribbean will boost
trades to strong over the S central Caribbean from Tue night
through the end of the week. Similarly, trades over the Gulf of
Honduras will increase to fresh starting Tuesday night. A tropical
wave moving through the E Caribbean will enhance showers and
thunderstorms today and tomorrow over the SE Caribbean.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A surface ridge extending from a 1025 mb center of high pressure
near 32N39W extends southwestward to near 24N71W. To the N of 23N
and west of 67W, scattered to numerous moderate and isolated
strong convection is occurring ahead of a stalling cold front
along 31.5N and offshore of the Carolinas. Moderate to locally
fresh S to SW winds prevail ahead of the front, north of 29N and
between 61W and 69W. Another area of scattered moderate convection
is found from 21N to 25N between 56.5W and 63W in association to
an upper level low. Elsewhere N of 22N and W of 40W, moderate or
lighter winds and moderate seas prevail. Across the tropical
Atlantic S of 22N moderate to locally fresh trade winds prevail,
with seas of 5-8 ft. A 1025 mb high pressure near the Azores is
promoting moderate to locally fresh NE to E winds from the Canary
Islands to 40W, where seas are 5 to 8 ft.

For the forecast west of 55W, the ridge associated with the
Bermuda High will remain farther south than usual - near 25N -
through Fri. This in combination with a stationary front offshore
of the Carolinas is forcing fresh to strong SW winds and scattered
showers and thunderstorms north of 28N west of 65W for the next
several days. Fresh to locally strong trades will develop just
north of Hispaniola from Wed through Fri.

Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
0015 UTC Tue Jul 28 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1800 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
2115 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

An Atlantic tropical wave is in the E Atlantic with axis near
27.5W, extending from 089N to 18N, and moving westward at around
15 kt. Isolated clusters of moderate convection are noted near the
wave.

An Atlantic tropical wave is along 57.5W, extending from 08N to
20N, and moving westward at around 15 kt. No significant
convection is depicted at this time in association with this wave.

A tropical wave that was previously anaylzed in the central
Caribbean with axis along 71.5W is no longer discernible at either
the lower or mid levels.

A tropical wave is in the western Caribbean with axis near 81.5W,
from 09N to 18N, and moving westward at around 15 kt. Scattered
moderate isolated strong convection is noted from 09N to 11N
between 77W and 83W.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 16.5N16W and
continues to 1014 mb low pressure near 11N31.5W to 10N39W to
13N52W. Scattered moderate isolated strong convection is present
near the coast of Africa, from 06N to 14N between Africa and 24W.
Some isolated clusters of moderate convection are near the low.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

An upper level trough along the eastern seaboard of the U.S.
extends southwestward to northern Florida, and scattered showers
and thunderstorms from 25N to 29N and east of 87W. Scattered
moderate convection is noted near and just offshore of Tampico,
Mexico. A high pressure of 1017 mb is centered near 25.5N91W and
is supporting light to gentle variable winds from the northwest to
southeast of the high, with moderate anticyclonic winds around the
outer periphery closer to the coasts. Seas are 1 to 2 ft near the
high and the northwest to southeast ridging, and 2 to 4 ft around
the outer periphery.

For the forecast, high pressure remaining over the central Gulf
will lead toward generally quiescent conditions for the next
several days. The exception is NE fresh winds just northwest of
the Yucatan peninsula nightly through the weekend. Scattered
showers and thunderstorms will continue during the next couple of
days over the NE Gulf due to an approaching weak cold front.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Please refer to the TROPICAL WAVES section above for information
on any convection.

Atlantic ridging dominates north of the basin with 1010 mb low
pressure analyzed along the northern coast of Colombia at
10N75.5W. The pressure gradient between the two supports moderate
to fresh trades from 11N to 18N between 68W and 80W in the central
Caribbean, locally strong near Colombia, along with 5 to 7 ft
seas. Winds are moderate or weaker across the remainder of basin,
with slight to moderate seas.

For the forecast, an increasing pressure gradient between the
Colombian Low and high pressure north of the Caribbean will boost
trades to strong over the S central Caribbean from tonight through
the end of the week. Additionally, trades over the Gulf of
Honduras will increase to fresh starting Wednesday night. A
tropical wave moving through the E Caribbean will enhance showers
and thunderstorms tonight and tomorrow.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A surface ridge extending from a 1024 mb center of high pressure
near 31.5N46 extends southwestward to across the Central Bahamas
to the Straits of Florida. A stalled out frontal boundary is
located from west-northwest of Bermuda to 1008 mb low pressure at
31.5N77W to the South Carolina Lowcountry. Troughing is ahead of
this boundary over the discussion waters, analyzed from 31N68W to
27N79W. Moderate to fresh SW winds are found north of 27N between
60W and 77W, along with 5 to 7 ft seas and isolated to scattered
moderate to strong convection. A mid to upper level low is to the
southeast, supporting scattered moderate isolated strong
convection from 22N to 28N between 54W and 64W. No other
significant convection is noted across the basin. Moderate to
locally fresh trades are noted around the ridging from the Canary
and Madeira Islands southwestward to offshore Africa and the
waters north of the monsoon trough to about 23N and to the east of
55W. Seas are mainly 5 to locally 8 ft across these waters. Winds
are mainly moderate or weaker across the remainder of the waters,
except locally fresh near northern Hispaniola, with moderate seas.

For the forecast west of 55W, the ridge associated with the
Bermuda High will remain farther south than usual - near 25N -
through Fri. This in combination with a stationary front offshore
of the Carolinas is forcing fresh to strong SW winds and scattered
showers and thunderstorms north of 27N west of 63W for the next
several days. Fresh to locally strong trades will develop just
north of Hispaniola from Wed through the weekend.

moderate isolated strong convection is noted from 09N to 14N
between 79W and 83W.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 14N16W and continues
to 11N27W to 1015 mb low pressure near 09N36W to 09N39W. The ITCZ
begins near 09N39W and continues to 09N51W to 08N61W. Scattered
moderate convection is present offshore Africa, from 05N to 12N
between Africa and 17W. Similar convection is from 06N to 10N
between 36W and 45W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

Scattered moderate convection is ongoing over the from the coastal
waters of Pensacola to the Tampa Bay area associated with a
surface trough. Ahead of the trough the tail of a weak cold front
moves across central Florida. The remainder Gulf is under the
influence of a 1014 mb high centered near 26N91W, which is
supporting light to gentle variable winds over the central and SE
basin along with slight seas. Moderate to fresh NE to E winds
prevail in the Bay of Campeche associated with a surface trough.
Moderate to fresh SE to S winds are also W of 95W while moderate
or weaker NW winds are over the NE Gulf N of 28N.

For the forecast, high pressure will remain over the central Gulf
to promote generally quiescent marine conditions for the next
several days. The exception will be fresh NE winds off the
northwest coast of the Yucatan peninsula nightly through the
weekend. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue during
the next couple of days over the NE Gulf due to an approaching
weak cold front across the SE U.S.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Please refer to the TROPICAL WAVES section above for information
on any convection.

Atlantic ridging dominates north of the basin with 1008 mb low
pressure analyzed just N of Panama near 10N79W. The pressure
gradient between the two supports moderate to fresh trades over the
central Caribbean along with 5 to 7 ft seas. Winds are moderate
or weaker across the remainder of basin, with slight to moderate
seas.

For the forecast, the increasing pressure gradient between the
Colombian Low and western Atlantic high pressure along 25N-26N
will boost trade winds to strong over the S central Caribbean
tonight through the end of the week. Trade winds over the Gulf of
Honduras will increase to fresh beginning Wednesday night. A
tropical wave entering the E Caribbean tonight will enhance
showers and thunderstorms across the E and NE Caribbean tonight
and tomorrow.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A weak cold front is moving across the SW N Atlantic waters from
31N74W SW to central coastal Florida near 28N80W. Scattered heavy
showers and tstms are ahead of this boundary, affecting the
northern offshore waters N of 27N between 66W and 78W. The Azores
High dominates the remainder subtropical Atlantic waters and
provides moderate or weaker winds and moderate seas. The gradient
of pressure between the ridge and the front over the SW waters
supports moderate to fresh SSW winds W of 60W.

For the forecast west of 55W, the Bermuda High will maintain a
ridge farther south than usual - near 25N - through Fri. This in
combination with a stationary front offshore of the Carolinas will
force fresh to strong SW winds with scattered showers and
thunderstorms north of 27N and west of 63W for the next several
days. Fresh to locally strong trades will develop just north of
Hispaniola and Puerto Rico from Wed through the weekend.

scattered moderate to strong convection is noted about the wave
from 09N to 14N between 79W and 84W, while isolated showers are
noted near the northern portion of the wave.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 13N17W and continues
to 13N26W to 1013 mb low pressure near 09.5N37.6W to 09N39W. The
ITCZ begins near 09N39W and continues to 07.5N45W to 08N59W.
Scattered moderate isolated strong convection is present offshore
Africa, from 05N to 13N between the African coast and 20W. Widely
scattered moderate convection is elsewhere from 05.5N to 10N
between 20W and 58W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

Scattered moderate isolated strong convection is ongoing over the
NE Gulf, from the coastal waters of Panama City to between Cedar
Key and Tampa Bay, and is associated with low level convergence
occurring north of a surface trough that extends eastward across
central Florida. Similar convection is along the coast on either
side of Veracruz, Mexico. The remainder Gulf is under the
influence of a 1016 mb high centered near 24.5N90W, which is
supporting light to gentle variable winds over the central and SE
basin along with slight seas. Moderate to fresh NE to E winds
prevail in the Bay of Campeche associated with a surface trough.
Moderate to fresh SE to S winds are also W of 95W while moderate
or weaker NW winds are over the NE Gulf N of 28N.

For the forecast, high pressure will remain over the central Gulf
to promote generally quiescent marine conditions for the next
several days. The exception will be fresh NE winds off the
northwest coast of the Yucatan peninsula nightly into the weekend.
Scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue during the next
couple of days over the NE Gulf due to an approaching weak cold
front across the SE U.S.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Please refer to the TROPICAL WAVES section above for information
on associated convection. Isolated moderate convection extends
from western Cuba southwestward to the entrance to the Yucatan
Channel. Strong upper level SW wind shear dominates much of the N
half of the basin, occurring the to south of an upper trough
across NW portions.

Atlantic ridging dominates the region north of the basin,
extending W-SW along 24N-25N and into the central Bahamas, while
1010 mb low pressure is analyzed over northern Colombia near
09N74W. The pressure gradient between the two features supports
on;y moderate to fresh trades over the central Caribbean along
with 5 to 7 ft seas. Winds are moderate or weaker across the
remainder of basin, with slight to moderate seas.

For the forecast, the increasing pressure gradient between western
Atlantic high pressure along 24N-25N and the Colombian Low
will strengthen trade winds to strong over the S central
Caribbean this afternoon through Fri evening before diminishing.
Trade winds over the Gulf of Honduras will pulse to fresh
each evening and night beginning Wednesday night through Sat. A
tropical wave entering the E Caribbean this morning will enhance
showers and isolated thunderstorms across the E and SE Caribbean
through Wed morning.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A weak cold front is moving slowly southeastward across the SW N
Atlantic waters from 31N75W to central coastal Florida, supported
by a sharp upper trough along the east coast of the U.S.
Scattered heavy showers and tstms are ahead of this boundary,
extending from the waters of the Upper Florida Keys northeastward
to near 31N69W. Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms are
also within 90 nm east of a second trough that extends from
31N66W to 26N72W. affecting the northern offshore waters N of 27N
between 66W and 78W. 1024 mb high pressure near 28N44W dominates
the remainder subtropical Atlantic waters and provides moderate or
weaker winds and moderate seas N of 22N and W of 30W. The
gradient of pressure between the ridge and the front over the SW
waters supports moderate to fresh SW winds W of 60W, where seas
are 4 to 7 ft. South of the ridge, moderate to locally fresh
easterly trade winds prevail across the Tropical Atlantic S of
22N, where seas are 5 to 8 ft W of 30W.

For the forecast west of 55W, the Bermuda High will maintain a
ridge farther south than usual, along 24N-25N, through Fri. This
in combination with a stationary front offshore of the Carolinas
will force fresh to strong SW winds with scattered showers and
thunderstorms north of 27N and west of 60W for the next several
days. Fresh to locally strong trades will develop just north of
Hispaniola and Puerto Rico from Wed afternoon through Sat.

America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1515 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

An eastern Atlantic tropical wave is along 30W, south of 20N,
moving westward at 10-15 kt. Scattered showers are present from
07N to 12N and between 28W and 36W.

A tropical wave has been repositioned along 61W, south of 17N,
based on surface observations, satellite and wave guidance data.
The wave is moving westward at 15-20 kt. Scattered showers are
noted south of 14N and between 58W and 64W.

A central Caribbean tropical wave is along 79W, south of 19N,
moving westward at 15 kt. A few showers are seen near the northern
portion of the wave.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
Mauritania near 19N16W and dives southwestward to a 1012 mb low
pres near 14N27W and then to 10N45W. The ITCZ extends from 10N45W
to 09N58W. Scattered moderate convection is observed from 03N to
12N between east of 20W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

The western portion of the subtropical ridge extends across
the Florida Straits into the Gulf waters and along with a frontal
boundary to the north, sustain moderate to fresh westerly winds
and moderate seas north of 27N. Elsewhere, light to gentle winds
and slight seas prevail. The aforementioned frontal boundary and
an upper-level trough over the eastern United States maintain
unstable conditions across the area, producing scattered showers
and isolated thunderstorms over the northern half of the Gulf. A
recent scatterometer satellite pass indicate that stronger winds
are occurring near the stronger convection.

For the forecast, relatively weak high pressure will remain in
control of the weather pattern across the Gulf, promoting gentle
to moderate winds into the upcoming week. The exceptions will be
fresh NE to E winds off the northwest coast of the Yucatan
peninsula nightly through the period, as well as the far northern
Gulf, where an inland cold front will induce moderate to fresh W
to SW winds through Mon. Scattered to numerous showers and
thunderstorms are expected over the eastern Gulf, and over the
central Gulf N of 25N between 87W and 90W into the upcoming week
as an upper-level trough and a cold front approach the Gulf coast.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Divergence aloft supports scattered showers and isolated
thunderstorms over the northern Caribbean waters, especially
near Puerto Rico, eastern Hispaniola and south of eastern Cuba. A
few showers are also seen in the SW Caribbean. The westward-
building subtropical high pressure system positioned over the
central Atlantic forces fresh to strong easterly trade winds and
rough seas over much of the central Caribbean. Moderate to locally
fresh easterly winds and moderate seas are found in the eastern
Caribbean. Elsewhere, moderate or weaker winds and slight to
moderate seas prevail.

For the forecast, an enhanced pressure gradient across the Caribbean
will favor fresh to strong trades over the central basin through
much of the week ahead. Fresh to strong winds will pulse in the
Gulf of Honduras at night Mon through Thu. A tropical wave, near
79W is accompanied by scattered showers and thunderstorms between
Jamaica and eastern Cuba and near the Windward Passage. The wave
will continue quickly moving westward across the remainder of the
basin through Mon night.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Favorable upper-level conditions and abundant tropical moisture
combine to produce scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms
across the SW North Atlantic, west of 60W. The tropical Atlantic
is dominated by a 1028 mb high pressure system centered near
33N55W, supporting fresh to locally strong southerly winds and
seas of 4-7 ft north of 28N and west of 75W. Elsewhere, moderate
or weaker winds and moderate seas prevail across much of the
remaining tropical Atlantic.

For the forecast west of 55W, a high pressure ridge extending from
the central Atlantic to South Florida will change little through
Tue, then lift N to central Florida on Wed and N of 31N on Thu.
The pressure gradient between the ridge and a frontal boundary
just NW of the forecast waters will continue to support fresh to
strong SW winds ahead of the front, along with scattered to
numerous showers and thunderstorms over the majority of the area
into the upcoming week. Fresh to strong trades will pulse just
north of Hispaniola at night through the period.

southwestward to 09N46W. The ITCZ extends from 09N46W to 08N59W.
Scattered moderate convection is noted from 05N to 11N E of 20W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A stationary front is analyzed along much of the northern Gulf
coast. Scattered moderate convection is confined to the eastern
side of the basin W of 25N. High pressure north of the area is
supporting light and variable winds across most of the basin,
except for moderate SW winds over the NE Gulf and moderate E
winds over the Bay of Campeche. Seas 3 to 5 ft prevail over the NE
Gulf and the Bay of Campeche, elsewhere, 1 to 3 ft seas prevail.

For the forecast, high pressure will generally dominate,
promoting gentle winds and slight seas this week. Pulses of fresh
winds will occur of the Yucatan Peninsula each night, locally
strong Wed night, along with moderate seas. Thunderstorms will
prevail into mid- week in the northeast basin as a cold front
settles over the Florida Panhandle and a mid- and upper-level
trough sets up over the region.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

See Tropical Waves section above for information on convection
impacting the basin.

The westward-building subtropical high pressure system positioned
over the central Atlantic is forcing fresh to strong easterly
trade winds and rough seas over much of the central Caribbean.
Moderate to locally fresh easterly winds and moderate seas are
found in the eastern Caribbean. Elsewhere, moderate or weaker
winds and slight to moderate seas prevail.

For the forecast, the pressure gradient between Atlantic high
pressure and relatively lower pressure in northern South America
will continue to support fresh to strong trades over the central
basin this week, with rough seas there. Fresh to locally strong
winds will also pulse in the Gulf of Honduras. Fresh winds may
pulse through the Windward Passage at times. Otherwise, mainly
moderate or weaker winds ands seas will prevail.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A deep-layer trough extending down the eastern United States
toward western Cuba is leading aiding in broad ascent, combining
with abundant tropical moisture to induce scattered moderate to
isolated strong convection N of Cuba and W of 71W, including
waters in the vicinity of the Bahamas. Elsewhere, the tropical
Atlantic is dominated by a 1026 mb high pressure system centered
near 33N57W, supporting fresh to locally strong southerly winds
and seas of 4-6 ft north of 30N and west of 77.5W. Another area
of fresh to strong NE winds is in the vicinity of the Canary
Islands. Elsewhere, mainly moderate winds and seas prevail across
much of the tropical Atlantic.

For the forecast west of 55W, fresh to strong SW winds offshore
NE Florida will continue into early afternoon before diminishing
as high pressure builds west toward the region. An upper-level
trough along the eastern coast of the U.S. will prolong scattered thunderstorms offshore Florida and in the vicinity of the Bahamas
early this week. Elsewhere, locally strong trades will continue to
pulse each night offshore Hispaniola. A low level trough may
bring fresh to locally strong winds and locally rough seas from
east to west across the central waters by mid-week, reaching the
NW waters by the end of the week.

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1800 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
2305 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

An eastern Atlantic tropical wave is along 36W, south of 20N,
moving westward at 15 to 20 kt. No significant convection is
depicted at this time in association with this wave.

An eastern Caribbean tropical wave is along 71W, south of 19N,
moving westward at 15 kt. The wave is enhancing convection over
Venezuela and Colombia.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
Mauritania near 21N16W and continues southwestward to 08N49W.
The ITCZ extends from 08N49W to 09N59W. Scattered moderate to
isolated strong convection is noted from 05N to 11N E of 20W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

Divergence aloft associated with an upper-level trough north of
the area continues to generate some convection over the northern
and eastern waters. However, the most favorable environment for
showers and thunderstorms has moved eastward into the western
Atlantic. A weak pressure gradient dominates the Gulf waters,
supporting moderate or weaker winds and slight to locally
moderate seas.

For the forecast, high pressure will generally dominate, promoting
gentle winds and slight seas through the remainder of the week and
into the upcoming weekend. Pulses of fresh winds will occur of
the Yucatan Peninsula each night, locally strong Wed night, along
with moderate seas. Thunderstorms will prevail into mid-week in
the northeast basin as a cold front settles over the Florida
Panhandle and a mid- and upper-level trough sets up over the
region.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The subtropical ridge is centered just east of Bermuda forcing
fresh to strong easterly trade winds and rough seas across much
of the central Caribbean. An altimeter satellite pass from a few
hours ago showed seas up to 10 ft off northern Colombia. Moderate
to fresh easterly breezes and moderate seas are occurring in the
eastern Caribbean. Elsewhere, moderate or lighter seas prevail.

An upper-level trough north of the area and diurnal heating
support numerous showers and scattered thunderstorms across Cuba
and nearby waters. A few showers are seen in Hispaniola and the
SW Caribbean, while drier conditions persist in the rest of the
basin.

For the forecast, the pressure gradient between Atlantic high
pressure and relatively lower pressure in northern South America
will continue to support fresh to strong trades over the central
basin through the remainder of the week and into next weekend,
with rough seas there. Fresh to locally strong winds will also
pulse in the Gulf of Honduras. Fresh winds may pulse through the
Windward Passage at times. Otherwise, mainly moderate or weaker
winds ands seas will prevail.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Divergence aloft associated with an upper-level trough across the
eastern United States supports scattered showers and isolated
thunderstorms in the western Atlantic, especially west of 72W.
Meanwhile, an upper-level low centered near 27N55W is producing a
few showers north of 22N and between 43W and 70W. The remainder
of the basin is dominated by a broad subtropical ridge.

Fresh to locally strong easterly trade winds and moderate seas
are found off northern Hispaniola. Moderate to locally fresh
anticyclonic winds and moderate seas are evident north of 20N and
west of 30W. In the far NE Atlantic, fresh to strong N-NE winds
and moderate to locally rough seas are evident off Morocco and in
the water passages of the Canary Islands. Elsewhere, gentle to
moderate winds and moderate seas are prevalent.

For the forecast west of 55W, fresh SW winds offshore NE Florida
will continue tonight before diminishing as high pressure builds
west toward the region. An upper-level trough along the eastern
coast of the U.S. will prolong scattered thunderstorms offshore
Florida and in the vicinity of the Bahamas early this week.
Elsewhere, locally strong trades will continue to pulse each
night offshore Hispaniola. A low level trough may bring fresh to
locally strong winds and locally rough seas from east to west
across the central waters by mid-week, reaching the NW waters by
the end of the week.

convection associated with the tropical wave E of the Cape Verde
Islands, scattered moderate convection is from 04N to 10N between
38W and 48W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

Recent scatterometer data confirms a center of high pressure over
the E Gulf near 24N87W, which has a pressure of 1015 mb. This is
supporting light to gentle variable winds across the Gulf waters N
of 23N and E of 94W. In the Bay of the Campeche, a surface trough
is generating some showers and supporting moderate to locally
fresh NE to E winds. Over the far western Gulf, W of 94W, the
pressure gradient between the ridge and lower pressure along
Mexico supports moderate SE to S winds over the NW basin. Seas are
slight to 3 ft basin-wide.

southwestward to 10N32W to 08N41W. The ITCZ extends from 08N41W
to 08N59W. Convection in the vicinity is primarily associated with
the eastern Atlantic tropical wave and is described in the above
section.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A 1015 mb high pressure is centered near 24N87W, supporting light
to gentle winds across most of the basin. Convection has
dissipated in association with a surface trough in the Bay of
Campeche, but moderate E to SE winds continue E of the boundary in
the eastern Bay. Seas are slight to 3 ft basin-wide.

For the forecast, high pressure will generally dominate, promoting
gentle winds and slight seas into the upcoming weekend. Pulses
of fresh winds will occur of the Yucatan Peninsula each night,
locally strong Wed night, along with moderate seas.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The gradient between the Bermuda High, of 1025 mb, centered near
34N57W, and lower pressure over southern Caribbean due to the
passage of a tropical wave and a low center over NW Colombia is
supporting fresh to strong trades over the south-central basin.
Seas in this region are rough to 10 ft. Over the E and NW basin,
moderate to fresh trades prevail along with moderate seas. Broad
lift associated with an upper level trough and deep tropical
moisture are aiding in the development of scattered moderate
convection on the lee side of Cuba and adjacent waters and the

imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1800 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
2230 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

An eastern Atlantic tropical wave was added to the surface
analysis near 20W from 04N to 20N, moving west at 10-15 kt.
Scattered moderate convection is evident from 10N to 13N between
16W and 20W.

A central Atlantic tropical wave is along 44W, south of 18N,
moving westward at 15-20 kt. Scattered moderate convection is
present from 05N to 10N between 42W and 48W.

An eastern Caribbean tropical wave is along 66W, south of 19N,
moving westward at 20-25 kt. Scattered moderate convection is
occurring from 12N to 16N between 62W and 68W.

A western Caribbean tropical wave is along 87W, south of 19N,
moving westward at 15-20 kt. No significant convection is evident
near this tropical wave.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
Western Sahara near 23N15W and dives southward to a 1009 mb low
pres near 15N21W and then continues southwestward to 07N45W.
Scattered moderate convection is evident from 14N to 17N between
55W and 60W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

The western portion of the subtropical ridge extends into the
Gulf waters, supporting moderate or weaker winds and slight to
locally moderate seas. Divergence aloft associated with an upper-
level trough north of the area is producing a few showers and
isolated thunderstorms over the NE Gulf waters, mainly along the
coast, while generally dry conditions are prevalent in the
remainder of the basin.

For the forecast, the surface ridge will remain in control of the
weather pattern across the Gulf region promoting gentle to
moderate winds for the next several days. The exception will be
fresh NE winds off the northwest coast of the Yucatan peninsula
nightly through the period. Scattered showers and thunderstorms
will continue over the NE Gulf through the weekend and into next
week as an upper-level trough drops southward toward the Gulf
states as a very moist and unstable airmass prevails over
region. In addition, a cold front will move across the southern
U.S. Sat night through Sun night, with fresh southwest winds
developing ahead of it over the northern portion of the NE Gulf.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The subtropical ridge north of the basin forces fresh to strong
easterly trade winds and rough to locally very rough seas across
much of the central Caribbean. The strongest winds and highest
seas are occurring off NW Colombia. Moderate to fresh easterly
breezes and moderate seas are found in the eastern Caribbean.
Elsewhere, moderate or lighter winds and moderate seas prevail,
except for slight seas in the lee of Cuba.

For the forecast, very rough seas offshore of Colombia left
behind the recent gale winds will slowly subside through Sat.
Elsewhere across the central Caribbean, fresh to strong trades
will begin to diminish in coverage beginning and through the
weekend. Fresh trades elsewhere south S of about 18N will also
diminish in coverage through the weekend. Fresh to strong winds
will pulse in the Gulf of Honduras tonight, then to fresh speeds
for the remainder of the period. A tropical wave, currently over
the eastern Caribbean near 66W, is accompanied increasing showers
and thunderstorms along with gusty winds. The wave will quickly
move through the rest of the eastern Caribbean tonight and Sun
morning, and across the remainder of the basin through Mon night.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Clusters of showers and thunderstorms are active north of 24N and
west of 65W, along a deep layer trough reaching from 31N75W to
South Florida. Fresh to strong SW winds are evident within 120 nm
east of this feature, with 5-7 ft seas. Elsewhere, the remainder
of the subtropical and tropical Atlantic is influenced by a 1026
mb high pressure area centered near 32N52W. This pattern is
supporting mostly moderate NE to E winds and 4-6 ft seas across
the basin.

For the forecast west of 55W, the ridge will persist along 28N
into next week. The gradient between the ridge and a frontal
boundary just NW of the forecast waters will continue to support
fresh to strong SW winds along with scattered showers and
thunderstorms north of 26N and west of 65W through the weekend.
Fresh to strong trades will pulse just north of Hispaniola at
night through the period.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 20N16W and dives
southward to a 1010 mb low pres near 16N24W and then continues
southwestward to 07N43W. The ITCZ is analyzed from 06N47W to
06N53W. No significant convection is noted at this time.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

The western portion of the subtropical ridge extends into the
Gulf waters, supporting moderate or weaker winds and slight to
moderate seas. Divergence aloft associated with an upper-level
trough north of the area is producing a few showers and isolated
thunderstorms over the NE Gulf waters, mainly along the coast,
while generally dry conditions are prevalent in the remainder of
the basin.

For the forecast, the surface ridge will remain in control of the
weather pattern across the Gulf, promoting gentle to moderate
winds for the next several days. The exception will be fresh E to
NE winds off the northwest coast of the Yucatan peninsula
nightly through the period. Scattered showers and thunderstorms
will continue over the NE Gulf through the weekend and into next
week as an upper-level trough and cold front at the surface drop
southward toward the Gulf states. Fresh southwest winds look to
develop ahead of the front over the far northern Gulf late this
weekend.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The subtropical ridge north of the basin forces fresh to strong
easterly trade winds and rough seas across much of the central
Caribbean. The strongest winds and highest seas are occurring off
NW Colombia. Moderate to fresh easterly breezes and moderate seas
are found in the eastern Caribbean. Elsewhere, moderate or lighter
winds and moderate seas prevail, except for slight seas in the
lee of Cuba.

For the forecast, rough seas offshore Colombia will slowly
subside through Sat. A persistent enhanced pressure gradient
across the Caribbean will favor fresh to strong trades in the
central basin through this weekend and much of next week. Fresh to
strong winds will pulse in the Gulf of Honduras tonight, then
diminish to moderate to fresh speeds for the remainder of the
period. A tropical wave, currently over the eastern Caribbean near
66W, is accompanied by increasing showers and thunderstorms along
with gusty winds. The wave will quickly move westward across the
remainder of the basin through Mon night.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Scattered showers and thunderstorms are active north of 28N and
west of 70W. Fresh SW winds are evident in this area, with 5-7 ft
seas. Elsewhere, the remainder of the subtropical and tropical
Atlantic is influenced by a 1025 mb high pressure area centered
near 33N50W. This pattern is supporting mostly moderate NE to E
winds and 4-6 ft seas across the basin.

For the forecast west of 55W, the high pressure ridge will lift N
to near 28N by Sun and change little through next week. The
gradient between the ridge and a frontal boundary just NW of the
forecast waters will continue to support fresh to strong SW winds
along with scattered showers and thunderstorms north of 26N and
west of 70W through the weekend. Fresh to strong trades will pulse
just north of Hispaniola at night through the period.

09N40W to 07N48W and then from 06N50W to 06N55W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A frontal boundary and upper-level trough over the SE United
States is producing scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms
over the NE Gulf waters, while drier weather conditions are found
in the remainder of the basin. At the surface, a weak pressure
gradient supports moderate to occasionally fresh westerly winds
and seas of 2-3 ft north of 27N. Elsewhere, moderate or lighter
winds and slight seas are prevalent.

For the forecast, relatively weak high pressure will remain in control
of the weather pattern across the Gulf, promoting gentle to moderate
winds for the next several days. The exception will be fresh E to
NE winds off the northwest coast of the Yucatan peninsula nightly
through the period. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will
continue over the NE Gulf into the upcoming week as an upper-level
trough and cold front drop southward toward the Gulf coast. Moderate
to fresh southwest winds look to develop ahead of the front over
the far northern Gulf late this weekend.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The combination of a weak surface trough moving across the NE
Caribbean and an upper-level trough to the west support a few
showers and isolated thunderstorms affecting the Leeward Islands
and nearby waters. Similar activity is noted to the southwest of
the Cayman Islands and off Costa Rica.

The pressure gradient between the subtropical ridge situated in
the central Atlantic and lower pressures in the deep tropics
sustain moderate to fresh easterly trade winds and seas of 6-10 ft
across much of the central and eastern Caribbean Sea. Elsewhere,
moderate or weaker winds and slight to moderate seas prevail.

For the forecast, rough seas offshore Colombia will gradually subside
today. A persistent enhanced pressure gradient across the Caribbean
will favor fresh to strong trades in the central basin through this
weekend and much of next week. Fresh to strong winds will pulse
in the Gulf of Honduras at night Tue through Thu. A tropical wave,
currently over the eastern Caribbean near 68W, is accompanied by
showers and thunderstorms along with gusty winds. The wave will
quickly move westward across the remainder of the basin through
Mon night.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Divergence aloft associated with a couple of upper-level troughs
result in scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms over much
of the SW North Atlantic, especially west of 60W and north of 22N.
Meanwhile, a weak surface trough in the NE Caribbean is helping to
generate scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms across the
waters east of the Leeward Islands.

The remainder of the subtropical and tropical Atlantic is
influenced by a 1025 mb high pressure area centered near 33N50W.
This pattern is supporting moderate to locally fresh NE to E
winds and 4-7 ft seas across much of the basin.

For the forecast west of 55W, a high pressure ridge extending from
the central Atlantic to the Straits of Florida will lift N to
near 28N by Sun and change little through next week. The pressure
gradient between the ridge and a frontal boundary just NW of the
forecast waters will continue to support fresh to strong SW winds
along with scattered showers and thunderstorms over the majority
of the area into the upcoming week. Fresh to strong trades will

An eastern Caribbean tropical wave is along 71W, south of 19N,
moving westward at 15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is
occurring from 15N to 17N between 70W and 72W.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
Western Sahara near 24N15W and dives southwestward to a 1010 mb
low pressure area near 16N26W and then to 08N45W. The ITCZ
extends from 08N45W to 08N59W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

Divergent flow aloft is supporting scattered showers and
thunderstorms across much of the east-central Gulf. 1017 mb
surface high pressure is centered north of the Yucatan Channel
near 23N85W. This pattern is supporting moderate W winds and 2-4
ft seas off the northern Gulf coast, and light to gentle breezes
and 1-3 ft elsewhere.

For the forecast, the relatively weak high pressure will remain
in control of the weather pattern across the Gulf, promoting
gentle to moderate winds for the next several days. The exception
will be fresh NE to E winds off the northwest coast of the Yucatan
peninsula nightly through the period. Scattered showers and
thunderstorms will continue over the NE Gulf and over mostly the
eastern portion of the north-central Gulf into the upcoming week
as an upper-level trough and a cold front approach the Gulf coast.
Moderate to fresh southwest winds look to develop ahead of the
front over the far northern Gulf late this weekend.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Scattered showers and thunderstorms are active off central Belize,
and off northeastern Costa Rica and southeastern Nicaragua.
Elsewhere, the pressure gradient between the subtropical ridge
situated in the central Atlantic and lower pressures in the deep
tropics sustain moderate to fresh easterly trade winds and seas of
6-9 ft across much of the central and eastern Caribbean Sea.
Elsewhere, moderate or weaker winds and slight to moderate seas
prevail.

For the forecast, the persistent enhanced pressure gradient
across the Caribbean will favor fresh to strong trades over the
central basin through the rest of the weekend and into most of
next week. Fresh to strong winds will pulse in the Gulf of
Honduras at night Mon through Thu. A tropical wave, currently over
the eastern Caribbean near 68W, is accompanied by scattered
showers and thunderstorms. The wave will quickly continue westward
across the remainder of the basin through Mon night.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Divergence aloft associated with a couple of upper-level troughs
result in scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms over much
of the area north of 25N and west of 60W. The remainder of the
subtropical and tropical Atlantic is influenced by a 1026 mb high
pressure area centered near 33N54W. This pattern is supporting
moderate to locally fresh NE to E winds and 4-7 ft seas across
much of the basin.

For the forecast west of 55W, a high pressure ridge extending from the central Atlantic to the Straits of Florida will change little through Tue, then
lift to N of 31N on Wed. The pressure gradient between the ridge
and a frontal boundary just NW of the forecast waters will continue
to support fresh to strong SW winds along with scattered showers
and thunderstorms over the majority of the area into the upcoming
week. Fresh to strong trades will pulse just north of Hispaniola
at night through the period.

Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1815 UTC Sun Aug 2 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1515 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

An eastern Atlantic tropical wave is along 30W, south of 20N,
moving westward at 10-15 kt. Scattered showers are present from
07N to 12N and between 28W and 36W.

A tropical wave has been repositioned along 61W, south of 17N,
based on surface observations, satellite and wave guidance data.
The wave is moving westward at 15-20 kt. Scattered showers are
noted south of 14N and between 58W and 64W.

A central Caribbean tropical wave is along 79W, south of 19N,
moving westward at 15 kt. A few showers are seen near the northern
portion of the wave.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
Mauritania near 19N16W and dives southwestward to a 1012 mb low
pres near 14N27W and then to 10N45W. The ITCZ extends from 10N45W
to 09N58W. Scattered moderate convection is observed from 03N to
12N between east of 20W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

The western portion of the subtropical ridge extends across
the Florida Straits into the Gulf waters and along with a frontal
boundary to the north, sustain moderate to fresh westerly winds
and moderate seas north of 27N. Elsewhere, light to gentle winds
and slight seas prevail. The aforementioned frontal boundary and
an upper-level trough over the eastern United States maintain
unstable conditions across the area, producing scattered showers
and isolated thunderstorms over the northern half of the Gulf. A
recent scatterometer satellite pass indicate that stronger winds
are occurring near the stronger convection.

For the forecast, relatively weak high pressure will remain in
control of the weather pattern across the Gulf, promoting gentle
to moderate winds into the upcoming week. The exceptions will be
fresh NE to E winds off the northwest coast of the Yucatan
peninsula nightly through the period, as well as the far northern
Gulf, where an inland cold front will induce moderate to fresh W
to SW winds through Mon. Scattered to numerous showers and
thunderstorms are expected over the eastern Gulf, and over the
central Gulf N of 25N between 87W and 90W into the upcoming week
as an upper-level trough and a cold front approach the Gulf coast.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Divergence aloft supports scattered showers and isolated
thunderstorms over the northern Caribbean waters, especially
near Puerto Rico, eastern Hispaniola and south of eastern Cuba. A
few showers are also seen in the SW Caribbean. The westward-
building subtropical high pressure system positioned over the
central Atlantic forces fresh to strong easterly trade winds and
rough seas over much of the central Caribbean. Moderate to locally
fresh easterly winds and moderate seas are found in the eastern
Caribbean. Elsewhere, moderate or weaker winds and slight to
moderate seas prevail.

For the forecast, an enhanced pressure gradient across the Caribbean
will favor fresh to strong trades over the central basin through
much of the week ahead. Fresh to strong winds will pulse in the
Gulf of Honduras at night Mon through Thu. A tropical wave, near
79W is accompanied by scattered showers and thunderstorms between
Jamaica and eastern Cuba and near the Windward Passage. The wave
will continue quickly moving westward across the remainder of the
basin through Mon night.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Favorable upper-level conditions and abundant tropical moisture
combine to produce scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms
across the SW North Atlantic, west of 60W. The tropical Atlantic
is dominated by a 1028 mb high pressure system centered near
33N55W, supporting fresh to locally strong southerly winds and
seas of 4-7 ft north of 28N and west of 75W. Elsewhere, moderate
or weaker winds and moderate seas prevail across much of the
remaining tropical Atlantic.

For the forecast west of 55W, a high pressure ridge extending from
the central Atlantic to South Florida will change little through
Tue, then lift N to central Florida on Wed and N of 31N on Thu.
The pressure gradient between the ridge and a frontal boundary
just NW of the forecast waters will continue to support fresh to
strong SW winds ahead of the front, along with scattered to
numerous showers and thunderstorms over the majority of the area
into the upcoming week. Fresh to strong trades will pulse just
north of Hispaniola at night through the period.

1215 UTC Thu Jul 30 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 0600 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
0930 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

An eastern Atlantic tropical wave is along 29W, from 02N to 19N,
moving westward at 10-15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is
noted S of 10N between 28W-33W.

A central Atlantic tropical wave is along 50W, south of 17N,
moving westward at around 10-15 kt. Scattered showers and
thunderstorms are seen from 07N to 13N between 46W and 57W.

An eastern to central Caribbean tropical wave is along 72W, south
of 20N near Dominican Republic to western Venezuela, moving
westward at around 10-15 kt. No significant convection is seen
near this wave.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough reaches the Atlantic from Mauritania at 19N16W
to 13N38W. The ITCZ extends from 13N38W to 13N49W where it is
broken by a tropical wave. Aside from the convection described
in the section above, no significant convection is noted along
these boundaries at this time.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A persistent surface trough is from near Naples, Florida to the
eastern Gulf near 26N87W. Scattered moderate to strong convection
are noted N of 26N and E of 86W. Otherwise, 1015 mb high pressure
near 26N89W controls the basin with gentle to moderate or weaker
winds prevailing across much of the Gulf and away from areas of
convection, except for the SW Gulf where a surface trough is
driving moderate to fresh E winds. Seas are 1 to 3 ft across the
basin.

For the forecast, the surface ridge will remain in control of the
weather pattern across the Gulf region promoting gentle to
moderate winds for the next several days. The exception will be
fresh NE winds off the northwest coast of the Yucatan peninsula
nightly into the weekend. A trough extends from Tampa, Florida
to 26N86W, while a mid to upper level broad trough north of the
area is slowly advancing southward toward a very moist and
unstable Gulf airmass. This set-up will maintain scattered
showers and thunderstorms mainly over the NE Gulf through the
rest of the week.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

A mid to upper level feature is supporting moderate convection in
the NW Caribbean just southeast of the Yucatan Channel. Otherwise,
high pressure at the surface over the central Atlantic and low
pressure over northern Colombia supports the typical fresh to
strong trades across the basin from 11N to 18N including the Gulf
of Honduras, except near gale force near northern Colombia.
Gentle to moderate winds are elsewhere. Seas are 5 to 8 ft from
10N to 18N to the east of 80W, and mainly 3 to 5 ft elsewhere
except lower in the lee of Cuba. Seas are locally 8-10 ft offshore
N Colombia.

For the forecast, the coverage area and strength of the trades will
continue increasing today as the pressure gradient between the
Atlantic ridge and the Colombian Low increases. Expect fresh to
strong winds and moderate to rough seas across most of the eastern
and central Caribbean, with the strongest winds to near gale, or
possible brief gusts to gale and highest seas offshore Colombia.
Fresh winds are expected to pulse in the Gulf of Honduras nightly
through Fri.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A frontal trough extends from near Bermuda to the NW Bahamas.
Divergence aloft associated with an upper-level trough north of
our waters supports scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms
N of 28N and W of 75W. The remainder of the basin is under the
influence of a broad subtropical ridge anchored by a 1025 mb high
pressure system near 31N51W.

The pressure gradient between the aforementioned ridge and frontal
trough support fresh to strong S-SW winds and seas of 6 to 9 ft
north of 28N and west of 65W. Moderate to fresh easterly winds
and seas of 5 to 7 ft are noted north of the ITCZ and monsoon
trough to 20N and west of 40W, with strong E winds E of the
Lesser Antilles to about 60W. In the far eastern Atlantic, fresh
to strong N to NE winds and seas of 4 to 7 ft are evident from 15N
to 30N and east of 20W. Elsewhere, moderate or lighter winds and
slight to moderate seas are prevalent.

For the forecast west of 55W, the Bermuda High will maintain a
ridge farther south than usual, roughly along 25N, through Fri.
This, in combination with a frontal trough over the western
Atlantic, will support fresh to strong SW winds along with
scattered showers and thunderstorms primarily north of 27N and
west of 65W for the next several days. Fresh to strong trades will
pulse just north of Hispaniola at night and into the mornings
through the upcoming weekend.

to 13N38W. The ITCZ extends from 13N38W to 13N49W where it is
broken by a tropical wave. Aside from the convection described
in the section above, no significant convection is noted along
these boundaries at this time.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A persistent surface trough is from near Naples, Florida to the
eastern Gulf near 26N87W. Scattered moderate to strong convection
are noted N of 26N and E of 86W. Otherwise, 1015 mb high pressure
near 26N89W controls the basin with gentle to moderate or weaker
winds prevailing across much of the Gulf and away from areas of
convection, except for the SW Gulf where a surface trough is
driving moderate to fresh E winds. Seas are 1 to 3 ft across the
basin.

For the forecast, the surface ridge will remain in control of the
weather pattern across the Gulf region promoting gentle to
moderate winds for the next several days. The exception will be
fresh NE winds off the northwest coast of the Yucatan peninsula
nightly into the weekend. A trough extends from Tampa, Florida
to 26N86W, while a mid to upper level broad trough north of the
area is slowly advancing southward toward a very moist and
unstable Gulf airmass. This set-up will maintain scattered
showers and thunderstorms mainly over the NE Gulf through the
rest of the week.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

A mid to upper level feature is supporting moderate convection in
the NW Caribbean just southeast of the Yucatan Channel. Otherwise,
high pressure at the surface over the central Atlantic and low
pressure over northern Colombia supports the typical fresh to
strong trades across the basin from 11N to 18N including the Gulf
of Honduras, except near gale force near northern Colombia.
Gentle to moderate winds are elsewhere. Seas are 5 to 8 ft from
10N to 18N to the east of 80W, and mainly 3 to 5 ft elsewhere
except lower in the lee of Cuba. Seas are locally 8-10 ft offshore
N Colombia.

For the forecast, the coverage area and strength of the trades will
continue increasing today as the pressure gradient between the
Atlantic ridge and the Colombian Low increases. Expect fresh to
strong winds and moderate to rough seas across most of the eastern
and central Caribbean, with the strongest winds to near gale, or
possible brief gusts to gale and highest seas offshore Colombia.
Fresh winds are expected to pulse in the Gulf of Honduras nightly
through Fri.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A frontal trough extends from near Bermuda to the NW Bahamas.
Divergence aloft associated with an upper-level trough north of
our waters supports scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms
N of 28N and W of 75W. The remainder of the basin is under the
influence of a broad subtropical ridge anchored by a 1025 mb high
pressure system near 31N51W.

The pressure gradient between the aforementioned ridge and frontal
trough support fresh to strong S-SW winds and seas of 6 to 9 ft
north of 28N and west of 65W. Moderate to fresh easterly winds
and seas of 5 to 7 ft are noted north of the ITCZ and monsoon
trough to 20N and west of 40W, with strong E winds E of the
Lesser Antilles to about 60W. In the far eastern Atlantic, fresh
to strong N to NE winds and seas of 4 to 7 ft are evident from 15N
to 30N and east of 20W. Elsewhere, moderate or lighter winds and
slight to moderate seas are prevalent.

For the forecast west of 55W, the Bermuda High will maintain a
ridge farther south than usual, roughly along 25N, through Fri.
This, in combination with a frontal trough over the western
Atlantic, will support fresh to strong SW winds along with
scattered showers and thunderstorms primarily north of 27N and
west of 65W for the next several days. Fresh to strong trades will
pulse just north of Hispaniola at night and into the mornings
through the upcoming weekend.

Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1815 UTC Thu Jul 30 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1515 UTC.

...SPECIAL FEATURES...

Caribbean Gale Warning: A tight pressure gradient between the
subtropical ridge north of the islands and lower pressures in NW
South America will support strong to near gale-force winds and
rough seas in the central Caribbean during the next several days.
Winds will increase to gale-force in the offshore waters of
Colombia and in the Gulf of Venezuela tonight. Seas are expected
to build to around 13 ft with these winds.

Please read the latest High Seas Forecast issued by the National
Hurricane Center at website - https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.nhc.gov/text/MIAHFSAT2.shtml__;!!DZ3fjg!8dRomKJMX_DePDsYXDOrCiQZmLCu9se8E0MfMxtJ1JL53SIpJPmn3bUX8qjyfxS2m_Om3yakz-nF0M0ck5PScOruLBw$

...TROPICAL WAVES...

An eastern Atlantic tropical wave is along 33W, south of 18N,
moving westward at 15 kt. Scattered moderate to isolated strong
convection is present from 04N to 11N and between 23W and 24W.

A central Atlantic tropical wave is along 54W, south of 17N,
moving westward at around 15-20 kt. Scattered moderate to isolated
strong convection is observed from 07N to 16N and between 44W and
61W.

An eastern Caribbean tropical wave is along 68W, south of 19N,
moving westward at 15 kt. A few showers are noted near the trough
axis.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough reaches the Atlantic from Mauritania at 18N16W
to 06N25W and to 12N38W. The ITCZ extends from 12N38W to 11N53W
and then from 10N55W to 08N59W. Please see the Tropical Waves
section above for information on the convection near the monsoon
trough and ITCZ.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms are seen in the NE
Gulf waters associated with a frontal boundary north of the area
and low-level convergence. The remainder of the basin is under
fairly tranquil weather conditions. A weak pressure gradient
dominates the Gulf waters, resulting in moderate or weaker winds
and slight seas. However, stronger winds and higher seas are
likely occurring near the stronger convection.

For the forecast, a surface ridge will remain in control of the
weather pattern across the Gulf region promoting gentle to
moderate winds for the next several days. The exception will be
fresh NE winds off the northwest coast of the Yucatan peninsula
nightly into the weekend. Unsettled weather in the form of
scattered and thunderstorms will continue over the NE Gulf
through the weekend as a frontal boundary remains just N of the
area, and as a moist and unstable airmass prevails over that
section of the Gulf.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Please see the Special Features section above for details on the
Gale Warning in effect for the south-central Caribbean.

An upper-level low over the Yucatan peninsula is generating a few
showers and isolated thunderstorms west of 80W in the western
Caribbean. Drier conditions are noted elsewhere.

High pressure north of the islands forces fresh to near gale-
force easterly trade winds and rough seas across the central
Caribbean, with the strongest winds and highest seas to 11 ft
occurring off NW Colombia. A recent partial scatterometer
satellite pass captured winds up to 29 kt. Moderate to fresh
easterly breezes and moderate seas are found in the eastern
Caribbean. In the remainder of the basin, moderate or lighter
winds and slight to locally moderate seas prevail.

For the forecast, Gale Warning is in effect for the offshore waters
of Colombia for tonight. Seas are expected to build to around 13
ft with these winds. Elsewhere across the central Caribbean, fresh
to near gale trades will continue to expand in coverage through
early Fri as the pressure gradient between the Atlantic high
pressure and low pressure in northern Colombian tightens. Mostly
fresh trades will continue elsewhere south S of about 18N through
the rest of the forecast period. Fresh to strong winds are
expected to pulse in the Gulf of Honduras tonight and Fri night.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A broad subtropical ridge continues to dominate much of the
tropical Atlantic waters. In the SW North Atlantic, scattered
showers and isolated thunderstorms are noted north of 28N and west
of 70W associated with a cold front and upper-level trough just
north of the area. The pressure gradient between the aforementioned
high pressure and frontal boundary results in fresh to strong
S-SW winds and seas of 6-9 ft north of 27N and west of 65W.
Stronger winds and higher seas may be occurring near the stronger
convection.

Meanwhile, moderate to locally fresh easterly winds and seas of
5-8 ft are occurring north of the ITCZ and monsoon trough to 25N
and west of 35W. In the far eastern Atlantic, fresh to strong N
winds and seas of 5-8 ft are evident north of 15N and east of
25W. Elsewhere, moderate or lighter winds and moderate seas are
prevalent.

For the forecast west of 55W, a high pressure ridge extending from
25N65W to the Straits of Florida will change little through Sat
night before it shifts northward to near 28N into early next week.
The gradient between the ridge and a frontal boundary just NW of
the forecast waters will continue to generally support fresh to
strong SW winds along with scattered showers and thunderstorms
primarily north of 27N and west of 65W for the rest of the week
and into the weekend. Fresh to strong trades will pulse just north
of Hispaniola at night and into the mornings through the upcoming
weekend.

Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
0615 UTC Fri Jul 31 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 0000 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
0500 UTC.

...SPECIAL FEATURES...

Caribbean Gale Warning: A tight pressure gradient between the
subtropical ridge north of the islands and lower pressures in NW
South America will support strong to near gale-force winds and
rough seas in the central Caribbean during the next several days.
A scatterometer pass from 0106 UTC confirmed gale-force winds
occurring in the Gulf of Venezuela. Winds will increase to gale-
force in the offshore waters of Colombia tonight. Seas are
expected to build to around 14 ft with these winds. Please read
the latest High Seas Forecast issued by the National Hurricane
Center at website - https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.nhc.gov/text/MIAHFSAT2.shtml__;!!DZ3fjg!6M9d5wNNVl3vMmlEfRWUc22hp_jha6lo7YqzjNm_1IQQhjGbpY3M7gaJ5leTJiYdeCNC9aoDQRdOjVxyir3PS3HH0Ck$

...TROPICAL WAVES...

An eastern to central Atlantic tropical wave is along 37W, south
of 20N, moving westward at around 20 kt. Scattered moderate
convection is present from 08N to 11N between 33W and 37W.

A tropical wave has been relocated to near 56W, south of 20N and
moving westward at around 20 kt. Scattered moderate convection is
occurring from 12N to 15N between 54W and 58W.

An western Caribbean tropical wave is along 80W, south of 20N
and moving quickly westward at around 15-20 kt. Any nearby
convection is currently observed in the far eastern Tropical
Pacific.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough reaches the Atlantic from the northern coast of
Mauritania at 21N16W to 08N30W and then to 12N42W. The ITCZ
extends from 12N42W to 13N57W. In addition to the convection
described in the Tropical Waves section above, scattered moderate
convection is occurring along the W coast of Africa, and also from
065B to 08N between 28W and 32W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

High pressure of 1016 mb is remaining over the central Gulf near
26N86W within a broad ridge. As a result, gentle to moderate winds
and slight seas prevail across the Gulf. Scattered moderate
convection is occurring in the far NE Gulf, generated by a frontal
boundary N of the region. Isolated moderate convection is also
occurring ahead of a surface trough over the Yucatan Peninsula.

For the forecast, a surface ridge will remain in control of the
weather pattern across the Gulf region promoting gentle to
moderate winds for the next several days. The exception will be
fresh NE winds off the northwest coast of the Yucatan peninsula
nightly into the weekend. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will
continue over the NE Gulf through the weekend as a frontal
boundary remains just N of the area, and a very moist and unstable
airmass prevails over region.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Please see the Special Features section above for details on the
Gale Warning in effect for the south-central Caribbean.

High pressure north of the islands forces fresh to near gale-
force easterly trade winds and rough seas across the central
Caribbean, with the strongest winds and highest seas to 12 ft
occurring off NW Colombia. Moderate to fresh easterly breezes and
moderate seas are found elsewhere from 11N to 18N. Across the
remainder of the basin, moderate or weaker winds and slight to
locally moderate seas prevail. Some convection is present near
eastern Honduras and Nicaragua due to the proximity of a tropical
wave and lower to mid level support.

For the forecast, a Gale Warning is in effect tonight for the
offshore waters of Colombia and for the Gulf of Venezuela. Seas
are expected to build to around 14 ft with these winds. Elsewhere
across the central Caribbean, fresh to near-gale trades will
continue to expand in coverage through early Fri as the pressure
gradient between the Atlantic high pressure and low pressure in
northern Colombian tightens. Mostly fresh trades will continue
elsewhere south S of about 18N through the rest of the forecast
period. Fresh to strong winds will pulse in the Gulf of Honduras
tonight and Fri night, then to fresh speeds for the remainder of
the period.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A frontal boundary is just north of the discussion waters.
Associated scattered moderate isolated strong convection is north
of 27N and west of 70W. Fresh to near gale force SW winds and 5
to 9 ft seas are in this region as well, highest winds and seas in
areas of convection. In the central Atlantic, a surface trough is
analyzed from 29N54W to 21N58W. Upper level divergence in the
same region as this trough is leading to scattered showers and
thunderstorms generally from 20N to 30N between 50W and 60W.
Otherwise, a broad subtropical ridge continues to dominate much of
the tropical Atlantic waters. Moderate to locally fresh trades
are noted north of the monsoon trough and ITCZ to 20N, except
fresh to strong N to NE winds from offshore Africa to the Cabo
Verde Islands, as well as along the northern coast of Hispaniola
and immediately east of the Lesser Antilles. Seas are 6 to 9 ft
across the areas of fresh to strong winds. Moderate or weaker
winds and moderate seas dominate the remainder of the tropical
Atlantic waters.

For the forecast west of 55W, a surface ridge extending from near
25N65W to the Straits of Florida will change little through Sat
night before it shifts northward to near 28N into early next week.
The gradient between the ridge and a frontal boundary just NW of
the forecast waters will continue to support fresh to strong SW
winds along with scattered showers and thunderstorms north of 27N
and west of 65W for the rest of the week and into the weekend.
Fresh to strong trades will pulse just north of Hispaniola at
night and into the mornings through the upcoming weekend.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough reaches the Atlantic from the northern coast of
Mauritania at 21N17W to 12N44W. The ITCZ extends from 12N44W to
14N57W. In addition to the convection described in the Tropical
Waves section above, no convection is noted at this time.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

High pressure of 1018 mb is remaining over the central Gulf near
25N86W within a broad ridge. As a result, gentle to moderate winds
and slight seas prevail across the Gulf. Scattered moderate
convection is occurring in the far NE Gulf, generated by a frontal

south S of about 18N through the rest of the forecast period.
Fresh to strong winds will pulse in the Gulf of Honduras tonight,
then to fresh speeds for the remainder of the period.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A frontal boundary is just north of the discussion waters.
Associated scattered moderate isolated strong convection is north
of 27N and west of 70W. Fresh to near gale force SW winds and 5
to 9 ft seas are in this region as well, highest winds and seas in
areas of convection. In the central Atlantic, a surface trough is
analyzed from 29N55W to 21N60W. Upper level divergence in the
same region as this trough is leading to scattered showers and
thunderstorms generally from 20N to 30N between 50W and 60W.
Otherwise, a broad subtropical ridge continues to dominate much of
the tropical Atlantic waters. Moderate to fresh trades are noted
north of the monsoon trough and ITCZ to 20N, except fresh to
strong N to NE winds from offshore Africa to the Cabo Verde
Islands, as well as along the northern coast of Hispaniola and
immediately east of the Lesser Antilles. Seas are 6 to 9 ft across
the areas of fresh to strong winds. Moderate or weaker winds and
moderate seas dominate the remainder of the tropical Atlantic
waters.

For the forecast west of 55W, the surface ridge across the west
and central Atlantic will change little through Sat night before
it shifts northward to near 28N into early next week. The gradient
between the ridge and a frontal boundary just NW of the forecast
waters will continue to support fresh to strong SW winds along
with scattered showers and thunderstorms north of 26N and west of
70W for the rest of the week and into the weekend. Fresh to strong
trades will pulse just north of Hispaniola at night and into the
mornings through the upcoming weekend.

Associated scattered moderate isolated strong convection is north
of 27N and west of 70W. Fresh to near gale force SW winds and 5
to 9 ft seas are in this region as well, highest winds and seas in
areas of convection. In the central Atlantic, a surface trough is
analyzed from 29N55W to 21N60W. Upper level divergence in the
same region as this trough is leading to scattered showers and
thunderstorms generally from 20N to 30N between 50W and 60W.
Otherwise, a broad subtropical ridge continues to dominate much of
the tropical Atlantic waters. Moderate to fresh trades are noted
north of the monsoon trough and ITCZ to 20N, except fresh to
strong N to NE winds from offshore Africa to the Cabo Verde
Islands, as well as along the northern coast of Hispaniola and
immediately east of the Lesser Antilles. Seas are 6 to 9 ft across
the areas of fresh to strong winds. Moderate or weaker winds and
moderate seas dominate the remainder of the tropical Atlantic
waters.

For the forecast west of 55W, the surface ridge across the west
and central Atlantic will change little through Sat night before
it shifts northward to near 28N into early next week. The gradient
between the ridge and a frontal boundary just NW of the forecast
waters will continue to support fresh to strong SW winds along
with scattered showers and thunderstorms north of 26N and west of
70W for the rest of the week and into the weekend. Fresh to strong

Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1815 UTC Fri Jul 31 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1505 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A central Atlantic tropical wave is along 41W, south of 19N,
moving westward at 15-20 kt. Scattered moderate convection is
present from 07N to 12N between 35W and 43W.

An eastern Caribbean tropical wave is along 63W, south of 19N,
moving westward at 20-25 kt. Scattered moderate convection is
occurring from 10N to 15N between 60W and 66W.

A western Caribbean tropical wave is along 85W, south of 19N,
moving westward at 15-20 kt. Scattered moderate to isolated strong
convection is observed south of 20N and west of 81W.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
Western Sahara near 26N15W and dives southward to a 1009 mb low
pres near 17N20W and then continues southwestward to 09N42W.
Scattered moderate convection is evident from 08N to 13N and east
of 21W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

The western portion of the subtropical ridge extends into the
Gulf waters, supporting moderate or weaker winds and slight to
locally moderate seas. Divergence aloft associated with an upper-
level trough north of the area is producing a few showers and
isolated thunderstorms over the NE Gulf waters, while generally
dry conditions are prevalent in the remainder of the basin.

For the forecast, a surface ridge will remain in control of the
weather pattern across the Gulf region promoting gentle to
moderate winds for the next several days. The exception will be
fresh NE winds off the northwest coast of the Yucatan peninsula
nightly through the period. Scattered showers and thunderstorms
will continue over the NE Gulf through the weekend and into
next week as an upper-level trough drops southward toward the
Gulf states as a very moist and unstable airmass prevails over
region.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The subtropical ridge north of the basin forces strong to locally
near gale-force easterly trade winds and rough to locally very
rough seas across much of the central Caribbean. The strongest
winds and highest seas are occurring off NW Colombia. A recent
scatterometer satellite pass showed peak winds to 33 kt. An
altimeter pass from a few hours ago indicated seas up to 16 ft.
Moderate to fresh easterly breezes and moderate seas are found in
the eastern Caribbean. Elsewhere, moderate or lighter winds and
moderate seas prevail, except for slight seas in the lee of Cuba.

Aside from the convection mentioned in the Tropical Waves section,
an upper-level trough over the NE Caribbean generates scattered
showers and isolated thunderstorms affecting the nearby islands
and coastal waters. Diurnal heating is likely to support some
thunderstorm activity developing over parts of Cuba and Hispaniola
later this afternoon. Meanwhile, a surface trough just east of the
Lesser Antilles will aid in the formation of showers and
thunderstorms later today and tomorrow, especially across the
Leeward Islands.

For the forecast, the overnight gale-force winds off Colombia and
in the Gulf of Venezuela have diminished to near gale-force winds,
however, very rough seas remain offshore of Colombia. These seas
will slowly subside through Sat. Elsewhere across the central
Caribbean, fresh to strong trades will begin to diminish in
coverage beginning and through the weekend. Fresh trades elsewhere
south S of about 18N will also diminish in coverage through the
weekend. Fresh to strong winds will pulse in the Gulf of Honduras
tonight, then to fresh speeds for the remainder of the period.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

An upper-level trough north of the SW North Atlantic is producing
numerous showers and isolated thunderstorms north of 26N and west
of 69W. Similar upper-level dynamics also support a few showers in
the north-central Atlantic and north of Puerto Rico.

The remainder of the basin is dominated by a broad subtropical
ridge situated over the central Atlantic. The pressure gradient
between this ridge and lower pressures associated with the frontal
boundary draped across the SE US and into the western Atlantic
sustain moderate to fresh SW winds and moderate seas north of 26N
and west of 60W. In the remainder of the basin, moderate to fresh
easterly winds and moderate seas are prevalent. The exception is
south of the monsoon trough and east of 30W, where moderate to
fresh SW winds and moderate seas are noted.

For the forecast west of 55W, a high pressure ridge extending from
near 30N55W to the Straits of Florida will lift N to near 28N by
Sun and change little into early next week. The gradient between
the ridge and a frontal boundary just NW of the forecast waters
will continue to support fresh to strong SW winds along with
scattered showers and thunderstorms north of 26N and west of 70W
through the weekend. Fresh to strong trades will pulse just north
of Hispaniola at night through the period.

Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1815 UTC Fri Jul 31 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1505 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A central Atlantic tropical wave is along 41W, south of 19N,
moving westward at 15-20 kt. Scattered moderate convection is
present from 07N to 12N between 35W and 43W.

An eastern Caribbean tropical wave is along 63W, south of 19N,
moving westward at 20-25 kt. Scattered moderate convection is
occurring from 10N to 15N between 60W and 66W.

A western Caribbean tropical wave is along 85W, south of 19N,
moving westward at 15-20 kt. Scattered moderate to isolated strong
convection is observed south of 20N and west of 81W.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
Western Sahara near 26N15W and dives southward to a 1009 mb low
pres near 17N20W and then continues southwestward to 09N42W.
Scattered moderate convection is evident from 08N to 13N and east
of 21W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

The western portion of the subtropical ridge extends into the
Gulf waters, supporting moderate or weaker winds and slight to
locally moderate seas. Divergence aloft associated with an upper-
level trough north of the area is producing a few showers and
isolated thunderstorms over the NE Gulf waters, while generally
dry conditions are prevalent in the remainder of the basin.

For the forecast, a surface ridge will remain in control of the
weather pattern across the Gulf region promoting gentle to
moderate winds for the next several days. The exception will be
fresh NE winds off the northwest coast of the Yucatan peninsula
nightly through the period. Scattered showers and thunderstorms
will continue over the NE Gulf through the weekend and into
next week as an upper-level trough drops southward toward the
Gulf states as a very moist and unstable airmass prevails over
region.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The subtropical ridge north of the basin forces strong to locally
near gale-force easterly trade winds and rough to locally very
rough seas across much of the central Caribbean. The strongest
winds and highest seas are occurring off NW Colombia. A recent
scatterometer satellite pass showed peak winds to 33 kt. An
altimeter pass from a few hours ago indicated seas up to 16 ft.
Moderate to fresh easterly breezes and moderate seas are found in
the eastern Caribbean. Elsewhere, moderate or lighter winds and
moderate seas prevail, except for slight seas in the lee of Cuba.

Aside from the convection mentioned in the Tropical Waves section,
an upper-level trough over the NE Caribbean generates scattered
showers and isolated thunderstorms affecting the nearby islands
and coastal waters. Diurnal heating is likely to support some
thunderstorm activity developing over parts of Cuba and Hispaniola
later this afternoon. Meanwhile, a surface trough just east of the
Lesser Antilles will aid in the formation of showers and
thunderstorms later today and tomorrow, especially across the
Leeward Islands.

For the forecast, the overnight gale-force winds off Colombia and
in the Gulf of Venezuela have diminished to near gale-force winds,
however, very rough seas remain offshore of Colombia. These seas
will slowly subside through Sat. Elsewhere across the central
Caribbean, fresh to strong trades will begin to diminish in
coverage beginning and through the weekend. Fresh trades elsewhere
south S of about 18N will also diminish in coverage through the
weekend. Fresh to strong winds will pulse in the Gulf of Honduras
tonight, then to fresh speeds for the remainder of the period.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

An upper-level trough north of the SW North Atlantic is producing
numerous showers and isolated thunderstorms north of 26N and west
of 69W. Similar upper-level dynamics also support a few showers in
the north-central Atlantic and north of Puerto Rico.

The remainder of the basin is dominated by a broad subtropical
ridge situated over the central Atlantic. The pressure gradient
between this ridge and lower pressures associated with the frontal
boundary draped across the SE US and into the western Atlantic
sustain moderate to fresh SW winds and moderate seas north of 26N
and west of 60W. In the remainder of the basin, moderate to fresh
easterly winds and moderate seas are prevalent. The exception is
south of the monsoon trough and east of 30W, where moderate to
fresh SW winds and moderate seas are noted.

For the forecast west of 55W, a high pressure ridge extending from
near 30N55W to the Straits of Florida will lift N to near 28N by
Sun and change little into early next week. The gradient between
the ridge and a frontal boundary just NW of the forecast waters
will continue to support fresh to strong SW winds along with
scattered showers and thunderstorms north of 26N and west of 70W
through the weekend. Fresh to strong trades will pulse just north
of Hispaniola at night through the period.

Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1815 UTC Tue Jul 28 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1646 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave is in the E Atlantic with axis near 36W,
extending from 06N to 15N, and moving westward at around 15-20
kt. Scattered showers are depicted from 11.5N to 14N between 33.5W
to 39W.

A tropical wave is over the E Caribbean with axis near 63.5W,
extending from 10N to 19N, and moving westward at 15 to 20 kt.
No significant convection is depicted at the moment in association
with this wave.

A tropical wave is in the SW Caribbean with axis along 83W, from
06N to 18N, and moving westward at around 10-15 kt. A cluster of
scattered moderate to strong convection is noted from 11.5N to
16N and west of 90W.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 16N16.5W and
continues to 09N42W. The ITCZ begins near 09N42W and continues to
07N56W. Scattered moderate isolated strong convection is present
offshore Africa, from 04N to 10.5N between the African coast and
20W. Scattered moderate convection is depicted from 07N to 09N
between 40W and 43.5W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

Scattered moderate to isolated strong convection is ongoing over
the E Gulf, from 26N to 29N between 83W and 87.5W in associated
with low level convergence occurring near a surface trough that
extends eastward across central Florida. Similar convection is
depicted north of the Florida Keys. The remainder Gulf is under
the influence of a 1014 mb high centered near 28N93W, which is
supporting light to gentle variable winds, except for SE to S
gentle to moderate winds west of 91.5W. Seas across the basin
range between 2 to 4 ft.

For the forecast, high pressure will remain over the central Gulf
to promote gentle to moderate winds for the next several days.
The exception will be fresh NE winds off the northwest coast of
the Yucatan peninsula nightly into the weekend. Scattered showers
and thunderstorms will continue during the next couple of days
over the NE Gulf due to a weakening cold front located across
north- central Florida.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Please refer to the TROPICAL WAVES section above for information
on associated convection. Isolated moderate convection extends
from western Cuba southwestward to the entrance to the Yucatan
Channel. Strong upper level SW wind shear dominates much of the N
half of the basin, occurring the south of an upper trough across
NW portions.

Atlantic ridging dominates the region north of the basin,
extending W-SW along 20N and into the eastern Bahamas. The
pressure gradient between relatively low pressure over south
America and the ridge is supporting moderate to fresh trades over
the central Caribbean along with 4 to 6 ft seas. Winds are
moderate or weaker across the remainder of basin, with slight to
moderate seas.

For the forecast, the increasing pressure gradient between the
Atlantic ridge and the Colombian Low will strengthen trade winds
to strong speeds over the south-central Caribbean this afternoon
through Fri evening before diminishing. Trade winds over the Gulf
of Honduras will increase to fresh Wednesday night through Sat. A
tropical wave entering the E Caribbean this morning will enhance
showers and isolated thunderstorms across the E and SE Caribbean
through Wed morning.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A dissipating stationary front extends across the SW N Atlantic
waters from 31N73.5W to central coastal Florida, supported by a
sharp upper trough along the east coast of the U.S. Scattered to
numerous showers and tstms are ahead of this boundary, north of
26N between 65W and 78W. A 1024 mb high pressure near 29N47W
dominates the remainder subtropical Atlantic waters and provides
moderate or weaker winds and moderate seas N of 22N and W of 30W.
The gradient of pressure between the ridge and the front over the
SW waters supports moderate to fresh S to SW winds W of 61W, where
seas are 4 to 7 ft. South of the ridge, moderate to locally fresh
easterly trade winds prevail across the Tropical Atlantic S of
22N, where seas are 5 to 7 ft W of 30W.

For the forecast west of 55W, the Bermuda High will maintain a
ridge farther south than usual, along 24N-25N, through Fri. This
in combination with a stationary front off NE Florida will force
fresh to strong SW winds with scattered showers and thunderstorms
north of 27N and west of 63W for the next several days. Fresh to
locally strong trades will develop just north of Hispaniola and
Puerto Rico from Wed afternoon through Sat.

0015 UTC Tue Jul 28 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1800 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
2100 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave has emerged off the coast of Africa in the far E
Atlantic with axis near 18W, extending from 03N to 18N, and moving
westward around 10 kt. Scattered moderate convection is noted from
04N to 10N between 15W and 27W.

A tropical wave is in moving from the E to the central Atlantic
with axis near 38W, extending from 06N to 16N, and moving
westward at around 20 kt. Scattered showers are noted near the
wave axis.

A tropical wave is over the E Caribbean with axis near 65W,
extending from 10N to 19N or from northern Venezuela to near the
Anegada Passage, and moving westward at around 15 kt. No
significant convection is depicted at the moment in association
with this wave.

A tropical wave is in the SW Caribbean with axis along 83W, south
of 18N along the eastern coast of Nicaragua to across the border
of Costa Rica and Panama and into the far eastern Tropical Pacific
Ocean, and moving westward at around 10 kt. A cluster of
scattered moderate convection is noted from 13N to 16.5N between
79W and 89W.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near the coast of
Mauritania at 18N16W and continues to across the southern Cabo
Verde Islands to 08N42W. The ITCZ begins near 08N42W and
continues to 07N48W to 09.5N57W. Scattered moderate convection is
present offshore Africa, from 04N to 10.5N between the African
coast and 20W. Other than the convection associated with the
tropical wave near 18W as described above, a small cluster of
scattered moderate convection is noted from 07N to 09N between 42W
and 47W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

Isolated to widely scattered moderate convection is ongoing over
the E Gulf, from 25.5N to 29N between Florida and 88W in
associated with low level convergence occurring near a surface
trough that extends across central Florida to near Tampa Bay.
Similar convection is depicted near the coast of NW Cuba. The
remainder Gulf is under the influence of a 1014 mb high centered
near 28N93W, which is supporting light to gentle anticyclonic
winds along a ridge from the Yucatan Channel to the high to near
Galveston Bay, Texas. Moderate anticyclonic winds are closer to
all coastal locations around the periphery of the high. Seas are
mainly 1 to 3 ft, except locally higher near NE Mexico and SE
Texas.

For the forecast, a ridge will remain in control of the weather
pattern across the Gulf region promoting gentle to moderate winds
for the next several days. The exception will be fresh NE winds
off the northwest coast of the Yucatan peninsula nightly into the
weekend. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue during
the next couple of days over the NE Gulf due to the presence of a
frontal boundary over north- central Florida.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Please refer to the TROPICAL WAVES section above for information
on associated convection. Scattered thunderstorms are occurring
over and nearshore western Jamaica.

Atlantic ridging dominates the region north of the basin,
extending W-SW along 24N and across the central Bahamas. The
pressure gradient between relatively low pressure over South
America and the ridge is supporting moderate to fresh trades over
the Caribbean from 11N to 18N along with 3 to 6 ft seas. Winds
are moderate or weaker across the remainder of basin, with slight
to moderate seas.

For the forecast, the aerial extent and strength of the trade
winds will increase from late Wed into Thu as the pressure
gradient between the Atlantic ridge and the Colombia Low
increases. By that time, expect fresh to strong winds and moderate
to rough seas across most of the eastern and central Caribbean,
with the strongest winds and highest seas offshore Colombia. Fresh
to strong winds are expected in the Gulf of Honduras nightly from
Wed through Fri.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A frontal trough reaches from north of the discussion waters
through 31N72W to near Cape Canaveral, Florida continuing across
Central Florida to near Tampa Bay. Fresh to strong SW winds are
found north of 27N and east of the boundary to near 63W, along
with 5 to locally 8 ft seas, highest near 31N. Nearby scattered
moderate convection is found east of the trough to near 63W to the
north of 23N. A 1025 mb high pressure near 29N47W and a 1021 mb
high pressure near 32.5N22W dominates the remainder subtropical
Atlantic waters. Moderate to fresh trades can be found north of
the monsoon trough and ITCZ to about 22N around the high, with
moderate to locally fresh return flow west of 55W and elsewhere
southeast of the frontal trough. Fresh to locally strong winds are
near Africa to the Canary Islands from 17N to 30N to the east of
20W. Moderate or weaker winds and moderate seas dominate the
remainder of the waters.

For the forecast west of 55W, the Bermuda High will maintain a
ridge farther south than usual, along 24N-25N, through Fri. This
in combination with a stationary frontal boundary off NE Florida
will force fresh to strong SW winds with scattered showers and
thunderstorms north of 27N and west of 65W for the next several
days. Fresh to locally strong trades will develop just north of
Hispaniola and Puerto Rico from Wed through Sat.

Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
0615 UTC Wed Jul 29 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 0000 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
0500 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave is analyzed in the far E Atlantic with axis near
19W, extending from 04N to 19N, and moving westward around 10 kt.
Scattered moderate convection is noted from 04N to 10N between 15W
and 21W.

A tropical wave is in the central Atlantic with axis near 39W,
extending from 06N to 15N, and moving westward at around 15-20
kt. Scattered showers are noted near the wave axis.

A tropical wave is over the E Caribbean with axis near 65W,
extending from 10N to 19N or from northern Venezuela to near the
Anegada Passage, and is moving westward at around 10-15 kt. No
significant convection is depicted at the moment in association
with this wave.

A tropical wave is in the WW Caribbean with axis along 85W, south
of 20N and into the far eastern Tropical Pacific Ocean, and is
moving westward at around 10 kt. Scattered moderate convection is
seen S of 18N and W of 81W.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near the coast of
Mauritania at 19N16W and continues to 07N45W. The ITCZ begins
near 07N45W and continues to 07.5N57W. Other than the convection
associated with the tropical waves as described above, a small
cluster of scattered moderate convection is noted from 06N to 09N
between 42W and 48W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A surface trough is analyzed from north of Tampa Bay into the NE
Gulf, with scattered showers near the trough axis. The remainder
of the Gulf is under the influence of a weak 1013 mb high
centered near 26N92W, which is supporting light to gentle
anticyclonic winds from the Yucatan Channel to the high to near
Galveston Bay, Texas. Moderate anticyclonic winds are closer to
all coastal locations around the periphery of the high. Seas are
mainly 1 to 3 ft, except locally higher near NE Mexico and SE
Texas.

For the forecast, a surface ridge will remain in control of the
weather pattern across the Gulf region promoting gentle to
moderate winds for the next several days. The exception will be
fresh NE winds off the northwest coast of the Yucatan peninsula
nightly into the weekend. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will
continue during the next couple of days over the NE Gulf due to
the presence of a frontal boundary over north-central Florida.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Please refer to the TROPICAL WAVES section above for information
on associated convection. Scattered thunderstorms are also occurring
nearshore western Jamaica.

The pressure gradient between relatively low pressure over South
America and the ridge is supporting fresh to locally strong
trades over the central to SW Caribbean along with 7 to 10 ft
seas. Winds are moderate to fresh across the eastern Caribbean and
remainder of the SW Caribbean, where seas are moderate. Gentle to
moderate or weaker winds prevail across the remainder of basin,
with slight to moderate seas.

For the forecast, the aerial extent and strength of the trade
winds will increase from late Wed into Thu as the pressure
gradient between the Atlantic ridge and the Colombian Low
increases. By that time, expect fresh to strong winds and moderate
to rough seas across most of the eastern and central Caribbean,
with the strongest winds and highest seas offshore Colombia. Fresh
to strong winds are expected in the Gulf of Honduras nightly from
Wed through Fri.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A frontal trough reaches from north of the discussion waters
through 31N71W to near Cape Canaveral, Florida. Fresh to locally
strong SW winds are found north of 27N and east of the boundary to
near 65W, along with 5-8 ft seas. Nearby scattered moderate
convection is found east of the trough to near 65W to the north of
24N. A 1024 mb high pressure near 30N45W and an associated ridge
dominate the remainder of the subtropical Atlantic waters.
Moderate to fresh trades can be found north of the monsoon trough
and ITCZ to about 22N around the high, with moderate to locally
fresh return flow west of 55W and elsewhere southeast of the
frontal trough. Fresh to locally strong winds are near Africa to
the Canary Islands from 17N to 27N to the east of 20W. Moderate
or weaker winds and moderate seas dominate the remainder of the
waters.

For the forecast west of 55W, the Bermuda High will maintain a
ridge farther south than usual, along 24N-25N, through Fri. This,
in combination with a stationary frontal boundary off NE Florida,
will force fresh to strong SW winds with scattered showers and
thunderstorms north of 27N and west of 65W for the next several
days. Fresh to strong trades will develop just north of Hispaniola
and Puerto Rico from Wed through Sat.

Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
0615 UTC Wed Jul 29 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 0000 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
0500 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave is analyzed in the far E Atlantic with axis near
19W, extending from 04N to 19N, and moving westward around 10 kt.
Scattered moderate convection is noted from 04N to 10N between 15W
and 21W.

A tropical wave is in the central Atlantic with axis near 39W,
extending from 06N to 15N, and moving westward at around 15-20
kt. Scattered showers are noted near the wave axis.

A tropical wave is over the E Caribbean with axis near 65W,
extending from 10N to 19N or from northern Venezuela to near the
Anegada Passage, and is moving westward at around 10-15 kt. No
significant convection is depicted at the moment in association
with this wave.

A tropical wave is in the WW Caribbean with axis along 85W, south
of 20N and into the far eastern Tropical Pacific Ocean, and is
moving westward at around 10 kt. Scattered moderate convection is
seen S of 18N and W of 81W.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near the coast of
Mauritania at 19N16W and continues to 07N45W. The ITCZ begins
near 07N45W and continues to 07.5N57W. Other than the convection
associated with the tropical waves as described above, a small
cluster of scattered moderate convection is noted from 06N to 09N
between 42W and 48W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A surface trough is analyzed from north of Tampa Bay into the NE
Gulf, with scattered showers near the trough axis. The remainder
of the Gulf is under the influence of a weak 1013 mb high
centered near 26N92W, which is supporting light to gentle
anticyclonic winds from the Yucatan Channel to the high to near
Galveston Bay, Texas. Moderate anticyclonic winds are closer to
all coastal locations around the periphery of the high. Seas are
mainly 1 to 3 ft, except locally higher near NE Mexico and SE
Texas.

For the forecast, a surface ridge will remain in control of the
weather pattern across the Gulf region promoting gentle to
moderate winds for the next several days. The exception will be
fresh NE winds off the northwest coast of the Yucatan peninsula
nightly into the weekend. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will
continue during the next couple of days over the NE Gulf due to
the presence of a frontal boundary over north-central Florida.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Please refer to the TROPICAL WAVES section above for information
on associated convection. Scattered thunderstorms are also occurring
nearshore western Jamaica.

The pressure gradient between relatively low pressure over South
America and the ridge is supporting fresh to locally strong
trades over the central to SW Caribbean along with 7 to 10 ft
seas. Winds are moderate to fresh across the eastern Caribbean and
remainder of the SW Caribbean, where seas are moderate. Gentle to
moderate or weaker winds prevail across the remainder of basin,
with slight to moderate seas.

For the forecast, the aerial extent and strength of the trade
winds will increase from late Wed into Thu as the pressure
gradient between the Atlantic ridge and the Colombian Low
increases. By that time, expect fresh to strong winds and moderate
to rough seas across most of the eastern and central Caribbean,
with the strongest winds and highest seas offshore Colombia. Fresh
to strong winds are expected in the Gulf of Honduras nightly from
Wed through Fri.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A frontal trough reaches from north of the discussion waters
through 31N71W to near Cape Canaveral, Florida. Fresh to locally
strong SW winds are found north of 27N and east of the boundary to
near 65W, along with 5-8 ft seas. Nearby scattered moderate
convection is found east of the trough to near 65W to the north of
24N. A 1024 mb high pressure near 30N45W and an associated ridge
dominate the remainder of the subtropical Atlantic waters.
Moderate to fresh trades can be found north of the monsoon trough
and ITCZ to about 22N around the high, with moderate to locally
fresh return flow west of 55W and elsewhere southeast of the
frontal trough. Fresh to locally strong winds are near Africa to
the Canary Islands from 17N to 27N to the east of 20W. Moderate
or weaker winds and moderate seas dominate the remainder of the
waters.

For the forecast west of 55W, the Bermuda High will maintain a
ridge farther south than usual, along 24N-25N, through Fri. This,
in combination with a stationary frontal boundary off NE Florida,
will force fresh to strong SW winds with scattered showers and
thunderstorms north of 27N and west of 65W for the next several
days. Fresh to strong trades will develop just north of Hispaniola
and Puerto Rico from Wed through Sat.

near 08N45W and continues to 07N57W. Other than the convection
associated with the tropical waves as described above, scattered
moderate convection is noted within 60 nm on either side of the
ITCZ.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A surface trough is analyzed from north of Tampa Bay into the NE
Gulf, with scattered showers near the trough axis. The remainder
of the Gulf is under the influence of a weak 1013 mb high
centered near 26N90W, which is supporting light to gentle
anticyclonic winds from the Yucatan Channel to the high to near
Galveston Bay, Texas. Moderate anticyclonic winds are closer to

the central to SW Caribbean along with 6 to 8 ft seas. Winds are
moderate to fresh across the eastern Caribbean and remainder of
the SW Caribbean, where seas are moderate. Gentle to moderate or
weaker winds prevail across the remainder of basin, with slight to
moderate seas.

For the forecast, the aerial extent and strength of the trade winds
will increase from tonight into Thu as the pressure gradient
between the Atlantic ridge and the Colombian Low increases. By
that time, expect fresh to strong winds and moderate to rough seas
across most of the eastern and central Caribbean, with the
strongest winds and highest seas offshore Colombia. Fresh to
strong winds are expected in the Gulf of Honduras nightly through
Fri.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A frontal trough reaches from north of the discussion waters
from 31N70W to 28N80W. Fresh SW winds are found north of 25N and
east of the boundary to near 60W, along with 6-9 ft seas. Nearby
scattered moderate convection is found east of the trough to near
65W to the north of 27N. A 1024 mb high pressure near 30N47W and
an associated ridge dominate the remainder of the subtropical
Atlantic waters. Moderate to fresh trades can be found north of
the monsoon trough and ITCZ to about 22N around the high, with
moderate to fresh return flow west of 55W and elsewhere southeast
of the frontal trough. Fresh to strong winds are near Africa to
the Canary Islands from 17N to 27N to the east of 20W. Moderate or
weaker winds and moderate seas dominate the remainder of the
waters.

For the forecast west of 55W, the Bermuda High will maintain a
ridge farther south than usual, along 24N-25N, through Fri. This,
in combination with a frontal boundary over the W Atlantic, will
support fresh to strong SW winds with scattered showers and
thunderstorms north of 27N and west of 65W for the next several
days. Fresh to strong trades will pulse just north of Hispaniola
from tonight through Sat.

Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1815 UTC Wed Jul 29 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1505 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

An eastern Atlantic tropical wave is along 24W, south of 18N,
moving westward at 15 kt. Scattered moderate to isolated strong
convection is present from 04N to 13N and between 18W and 30W.

A central Atlantic tropical wave is along 45W, south of 17N,
moving westward at 15-20 kt. Scattered moderate to isolated
strong convection is observed from 04N to 15N and between 38W and
56W.

An eastern Caribbean tropical wave is along 68W, south of 19N,
moving westward at 15 kt. A few showers are noted near the trough
axis.

A western Caribbean tropical wave is along 88W, south of 19N,
moving westward at 10 kt. Scattered moderate to isolated strong
convection is evident from 10N to 19N and between 81W and 88W.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough reaches the Atlantic through the border of
Mauritania and Senegal at 16N16W and continues to 09N22W and then
to 12N36W. The ITCZ extends from 12N36W to 09N44W and then from
09N46W to 06N58W. Please see the Tropical Waves section above for
information on the convection near the monsoon trough and ITCZ.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A few showers are noted over the eastern Gulf waters associated
with low-level convergence and an upper-level trough north of the
area. The remainder of the basin is under fairly tranquil weather
conditions in the westernmost portion of the subtropical ridge.
The weak pressure gradient results in moderate or weaker winds and
slight seas over much of the Gulf waters. However, stronger winds
and higher seas are likely occurring near the stronger convection.

For the forecast, a surface ridge will remain in control of the
weather pattern across the Gulf region promoting gentle to
moderate winds for the next several days. The exception will be
fresh NE winds off the northwest coast of the Yucatan peninsula
nightly into the weekend.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

High pressure north of the islands forces fresh to near gale-force
easterly trade winds and rough seas across the south-central
Caribbean, with the strongest winds and highest seas to 10 ft
occurring off NW Colombia. A recent scatterometer satellite pass
captured winds up to 29 kt. Moderate to fresh easterly breezes
and moderate seas are found in the north- central and eastern
Caribbean. Elsewhere, moderate easterly winds and slight to
locally moderate seas prevail. Aside from the convection described
in the Tropical Waves section above, no other significant
convection is occurring in the remainder of the Caribbean waters.

For the forecast, the coverage area and strength of the trades will
increase into Thu as the pressure gradient between the Atlantic
ridge and the Colombian Low increases. By that time, expect fresh
to strong winds and moderate to rough seas across most of the
eastern and central Caribbean, with the strongest winds and
highest seas offshore Colombia. Fresh to strong winds are expected
in the Gulf of Honduras nightly through Fri.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A frontal trough extends from near Bermuda to the NW Bahamas.
Divergence aloft associated with an upper-level trough north of
our waters supports scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms
within 120 nm of the trough axis. The remainder of the basin in
under the influence of a broad subtropical ridge anchored by a
1025 mb high pressure system near 29N49W.

The pressure gradient between the aforementioned ridge and frontal
trough support fresh to strong S-SW winds and seas of 6-9 ft north
of 28N and west of 64W. Stronger winds and higher seas may be
occurring near the stronger convection. Moderate to locally fresh
easterly winds and seas of 5-8 ft are noted north of the ITCZ and
monsoon trough to 24N and west of 35W. In the far eastern
Atlantic, fresh to strong N winds and seas of 4-7 ft are evident
north of 18N and east of 20W. Elsewhere, moderate or lighter winds
and moderate seas are prevalent.

For the forecast west of 55W, the Bermuda High will maintain a
ridge farther south than usual, along 24N-25N, through Fri. This,
in combination with a frontal boundary over the W Atlantic, will
support fresh to strong SW winds along with scattered showers and thunderstorms north of 27N and west of 65W for the next several
days. Fresh to strong trades will pulse just north of Hispaniola
from tonight through Sat.

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1800 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
2200 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

An eastern Atlantic tropical wave is along 28W, south of 19N just
west of the Cabo Verde Islands, moving westward at 15 to 20 kt.
Any nearby convection is described with the Monsoon Trough/ITCZ
section below.

A central Atlantic tropical wave is along 47W, south of 17N,
moving westward at around 20 kt. Any nearby convection is
described with the Monsoon Trough/ITCZ section below.

An eastern to central Caribbean tropical wave is along 70W, south
of 20N near the eastern Dominican Republic to western Venezuela,
moving westward at around 20 kt. Any nearby convection is described
with the Monsoon Trough/ITCZ section below.

A now departed NW Caribbean tropical wave is along 90W, south of
19N over the central Yucatan Peninsula, moving westward at around
15 kt. Any nearby convection is described with the Monsoon
Trough/ITCZ section below.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough reaches the Atlantic from Mauritania at 19N16W
to 10N20W to 14N34W. The ITCZ extends from 14N34W to along the
northern coast of South America at 06.5N58W. Isolated to widely
scattered moderate convection is noted from 05N to 10N between 21W
and 31W, and from 05.5N to 10.5N between 44W and 58W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A persistent surface trough is from near Cape Coral, Florida to
the eastern Gulf near 26N88W. A cluster of scattered moderate to
strong convection is noted from 26N to 29N between 83W and 86W.
Otherwise, 1015 mb high pressure near 27N93W controls the basin
with light to gentle anticyclonic winds from northwest of the high
to the southeast of the high, with moderate return flow closer to
the coastal locations around the periphery of the high. Seas are 1
to 3 ft across the basin.

For the forecast, a surface ridge will remain in control of the
weather pattern across the Gulf region promoting gentle to
moderate winds for the next several days. The exception will be
fresh NE winds off the northwest coast of the Yucatan peninsula
nightly into the weekend. A trough extends from Tampa, Florida to
29N87W while a mid to upper level broad trough north of the area
is slowly advancing southward toward a very moist and unstable
Gulf airmass. This set-up will maintain active weather in the form
of scattered showers and thunderstorms mainly over the NE Gulf
through the rest of the week.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

A mid to upper level feature is supporting moderate convection in
the NW Caribbean just southeast of the Yucatan Channel. Otherwise,
high pressure at the surface over the central Atlantic and low
pressure over northern Colombia supports the typical moderate to
fresh trades across the basin from 11N to 18N, except locally
strong near northern Colombia. Gentle to moderate winds are
elsewhere. Seas are 5 to 8 ft from 10N to 18N to the east of 80W,
and mainly 3 to 5 ft elsewhere except lower in the lee of Cuba.

For the forecast, the coverage area and strength of the trades
will increase into Thu as the pressure gradient between the
Atlantic ridge and the Colombian Low increases. By that time,
expect fresh to strong winds and moderate to rough seas across
most of the eastern and central Caribbean, with the strongest
winds to near gale, or possible brief gusts to gale and highest
seas offshore Colombia. Fresh to strong winds are expected in the
Gulf of Honduras nightly through Fri.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A frontal trough extends from near Bermuda to the NW Bahamas.
Divergence aloft associated with an upper-level trough north of
our waters supports scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms
within 120 nm of the trough axis. The remainder of the basin in
under the influence of a broad subtropical ridge anchored by a
1024 mb high pressure system near 30N50W.

The pressure gradient between the aforementioned ridge and frontal
trough support fresh to strong S-SW winds and seas of 6 to 9 ft
north of 28N and west of 65W. Stronger winds and higher seas may
be occurring near the stronger convection. Moderate to locally
fresh easterly winds and seas of 5 to 7 ft are noted north of the
ITCZ and monsoon trough to 22N and west of 40W. In the far
eastern Atlantic, fresh to strong N to NE winds and seas of 4 to 7
ft are evident from 15N to 30N and east of 20W. Elsewhere,
moderate or lighter winds and slight to moderate seas are
prevalent.

For the forecast west of 55W, the Bermuda High will maintain a
ridge farther south than usual, roughly along 24N-25N, through
Fri. This, in combination with a frontal trough over the western
Atlantic will support fresh to strong SW winds along with
scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms primarily north of
27N and west of 65W for the next several days. Fresh to strong
trades will pulse just north of Hispaniola at night and into the
mornings through the upcoming weekend.

Trough/ITCZ section below.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough reaches the Atlantic from Mauritania at 19N16W
to 10N20W to 14N34W. The ITCZ extends from 14N34W to along the
northern coast of South America at 06.5N58W. Isolated to widely
scattered moderate convection is noted from 05N to 10N between 21W
and 31W, and from 05.5N to 10.5N between 44W and 58W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A persistent surface trough is from near Cape Coral, Florida to
the eastern Gulf near 26N88W. A cluster of scattered moderate to
strong convection is noted from 26N to 29N between 83W and 86W.
Otherwise, 1015 mb high pressure near 27N93W controls the basin
with light to gentle anticyclonic winds from northwest of the high
to the southeast of the high, with moderate return flow closer to
the coastal locations around the periphery of the high. Seas are 1

expect fresh to strong winds and moderate to rough seas across
most of the eastern and central Caribbean, with the strongest
winds to near gale, or possible brief gusts to gale and highest
seas offshore Colombia. Fresh to strong winds are expected in the
Gulf of Honduras nightly through Fri.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A frontal trough extends from near Bermuda to the NW Bahamas.
Divergence aloft associated with an upper-level trough north of
our waters supports scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms
within 120 nm of the trough axis. The remainder of the basin in
under the influence of a broad subtropical ridge anchored by a
1024 mb high pressure system near 30N50W.

The pressure gradient between the aforementioned ridge and frontal
trough support fresh to strong S-SW winds and seas of 6 to 9 ft
north of 28N and west of 65W. Stronger winds and higher seas may
be occurring near the stronger convection. Moderate to locally
fresh easterly winds and seas of 5 to 7 ft are noted north of the
ITCZ and monsoon trough to 22N and west of 40W. In the far
eastern Atlantic, fresh to strong N to NE winds and seas of 4 to 7
ft are evident from 15N to 30N and east of 20W. Elsewhere,
moderate or lighter winds and slight to moderate seas are
prevalent.

For the forecast west of 55W, the Bermuda High will maintain a
ridge farther south than usual, roughly along 24N-25N, through
Fri. This, in combination with a frontal trough over the western
Atlantic will support fresh to strong SW winds along with
scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms primarily north of
27N and west of 65W for the next several days. Fresh to strong
trades will pulse just north of Hispaniola at night and into the

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough reaches the Atlantic from Mauritania at 19N17W
to 09N22W to 12N36W. The ITCZ extends from 12N36W to 09N47W where
it is broken by a tropical wave. The ITCZ then resumes from 07N50W
to 06N54W. Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms are seen
from 06N to 11N between 25W and 30W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A persistent surface trough is from near Naples, Florida to the
eastern Gulf near 26N87W. Clusters of scattered moderate to
strong convection are noted N of 26N and E of 86W. Otherwise,
1014 mb high pressure near 27N91W controls the basin with gentle
to moderate or weaker winds prevailing across much of the Gulf
and away from areas of convection, except for the SW Gulf where a
surface trough is driving moderate to fresh E winds. Seas are 1
to 3 ft across the basin.

For the forecast, a surface ridge will remain in control of the
weather pattern across the Gulf region promoting gentle to
moderate winds for the next several days. The exception will be
fresh NE winds off the northwest coast of the Yucatan peninsula
nightly into the weekend. A trough extends from Tampa, Florida to
26N86W while a mid to upper level broad trough north of the area
is slowly advancing southward toward a very moist and unstable
Gulf airmass. This set-up will maintain scattered showers and
thunderstorms mainly over the NE Gulf through the rest of the
week.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

A mid to upper level feature is supporting moderate convection in
the NW Caribbean just southeast of the Yucatan Channel. Otherwise,
high pressure at the surface over the central Atlantic and low
pressure over northern Colombia supports the typical fresh to
strong trades across the basin from 11N to 18N including the Gulf
of Honduras, except locally near gale force near northern
Colombia. Gentle to moderate winds are elsewhere. Seas are 5 to 8
ft from 10N to 18N to the east of 80W, and mainly 3 to 5 ft
elsewhere except lower in the lee of Cuba. Seas are locally 8-10
ft offshore N Colombia.

For the forecast, the coverage area and strength of the trades
will increase on Thu as the pressure gradient between the Atlantic
ridge and the Colombian Low increases. By that time, expect fresh
to strong winds and moderate to rough seas across most of the
eastern and central Caribbean, with the strongest winds to near
gale, or possible brief gusts to gale and highest seas offshore
Colombia. Fresh winds are expected to pulse in the Gulf of
Honduras nightly through Fri.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A frontal trough extends from near Bermuda to the NW Bahamas.
Divergence aloft associated with an upper-level trough north of
our waters supports scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms
N of 28N and W of 75W. The remainder of the basin is under the
influence of a broad subtropical ridge anchored by a 1025 mb high
pressure system near 30N51W.

The pressure gradient between the aforementioned ridge and frontal
trough support fresh to strong S-SW winds and seas of 6 to 9 ft
north of 28N and west of 65W. Moderate to locally fresh easterly
winds and seas of 5 to 7 ft are noted north of the ITCZ and
monsoon trough to 20N and west of 40W, with locally strong E winds E
of the Lesser Antilles to about 60W. In the far eastern Atlantic,
fresh to strong N to NE winds and seas of 4 to 7 ft are evident
from 15N to 30N and east of 20W. Elsewhere, moderate or lighter
winds and slight to moderate seas are prevalent.

For the forecast west of 55W, the Bermuda High will maintain a
ridge farther south than usual, roughly along 25N, through Fri.
This, in combination with a frontal trough over the western
Atlantic, will support fresh to strong SW winds along with
scattered showers and thunderstorms primarily north of 27N and
west of 70W for the next several days. Fresh to strong trades will
pulse just north of Hispaniola at night and into the mornings
through the upcoming weekend.

moving westward at around 15-20 kt. No significant convection is
seen near this wave.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough reaches the Atlantic from Mauritania at 19N17W
to 09N22W to 12N36W. The ITCZ extends from 12N36W to 09N47W where
it is broken by a tropical wave. The ITCZ then resumes from 07N50W
to 06N54W. Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms are seen
from 06N to 11N between 25W and 30W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A persistent surface trough is from near Naples, Florida to the
eastern Gulf near 26N87W. Clusters of scattered moderate to
strong convection are noted N of 26N and E of 86W. Otherwise,
1014 mb high pressure near 27N91W controls the basin with gentle

26N86W while a mid to upper level broad trough north of the area
is slowly advancing southward toward a very moist and unstable
Gulf airmass. This set-up will maintain scattered showers and
thunderstorms mainly over the NE Gulf through the rest of the
week.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

A mid to upper level feature is supporting moderate convection in
the NW Caribbean just southeast of the Yucatan Channel. Otherwise,

our waters supports scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms
N of 28N and W of 75W. The remainder of the basin is under the
influence of a broad subtropical ridge anchored by a 1025 mb high
pressure system near 30N51W.

The pressure gradient between the aforementioned ridge and frontal
trough support fresh to strong S-SW winds and seas of 6 to 9 ft
north of 28N and west of 65W. Moderate to locally fresh easterly
winds and seas of 5 to 7 ft are noted north of the ITCZ and
monsoon trough to 20N and west of 40W, with locally strong E winds E
of the Lesser Antilles to about 60W. In the far eastern Atlantic,
fresh to strong N to NE winds and seas of 4 to 7 ft are evident
from 15N to 30N and east of 20W. Elsewhere, moderate or lighter
winds and slight to moderate seas are prevalent.

For the forecast west of 55W, the Bermuda High will maintain a
ridge farther south than usual, roughly along 25N, through Fri.
This, in combination with a frontal trough over the western

1815 UTC Tue Aug 4 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1627 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

An east Atlantic tropical wave is along 21W from 05N to 14.5N,
moving west at around 10 kt. Scattered to numerous moderate
convection is noted from 06N to 14N between 17W and 29W.

A central Atlantic tropical wave is along 39W from 05N to 19N,
moving west at 5 to 10 kt. There is no convection in association
with this wave at this time.

A central Caribbean tropical wave has an axis along 75.5W, from
eastern Cuba to Colombia, moving west at 10 to 15 kt. Scattered
moderate convection is noted in the vicinity of the Windward
Passage.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 21N17W and continues
southwestward to 07N46W. The ITCZ extends from 07N46W to 09N58.5W.
Scattered moderate convection is depicted from 07N to 11N between
40.5W and 47W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A 1016 mb high pressure is centered near 27N87W, supporting light
to gentle winds across most of the basin. Convection has
dissipated in association with a surface trough in the Bay of
Campeche, however, moderate E to SE winds continue over the area.
Seas are slight to 4 ft basin-wide.

For the forecast, high pressure will generally dominate,
promoting gentle winds and slight seas into the upcoming weekend.
Pulses of fresh winds will occur of the Yucatan Peninsula each
night, locally strong Wed night, along with moderate seas.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The gradient between the Bermuda High, of 1025 mb, centered near
34N59W, and lower pressures over southern Caribbean due to the
passage of a tropical wave and a low center over NW Colombia is
supporting fresh to strong trades over the south-central basin.
Seas in this region are rough to 9 ft. Over the E and NW basin,
moderate to locally fresh trades prevail along with moderate
seas. Broad lift associated with an upper level trough and deep
tropical moisture are aiding in the development of isolated to
scattered moderate convection from 10N to 16N and west of 78.5W.

For the forecast, the pressure gradient between Atlantic high
pressure and relatively lower pressure in northern South America
will continue to support fresh to strong trades over the central
basin into the weekend, with rough seas there, near gale force at
times. Fresh to locally strong winds will also pulse in the Gulf
of Honduras and Windward Passage. Otherwise, mainly moderate or
weaker winds ands seas will prevail.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A mid to upper lever trough supports scattered moderate
convection over the SW N Atlantic, including the Florida seaboard,
Great Bahama Bank, and Bahamas offshore waters W of 74W.
Scattered moderate convection has also developed farther east from
21.5N to 29N between 65.5W and 71W. Similar convection is also
present from 21N to 28N between 50W and 62W. The remainder of the
basin is dominated by a broad subtropical ridge.

Moderate S to SW winds are offshore northern Florida to 72W.
Fresh trades are present offshore Hispaniola, and in a zone from
23.5N to 28N between 48W and 61W. In the far NE Atlantic, strong
to near-gale N-NE winds and moderate to rough seas are evident
off Morocco and in the water passages of the Canary Islands.
Elsewhere, gentle to moderate winds and moderate seas are
prevalent.

For the forecast west of 55W, the aforementioned mid to upper
level trough along the SE U.S. coast will keep scattered
thunderstorms ongoing offshore Florida and in the vicinity of the
Bahamas into Wed. Locally strong trades will continue pulsing
offshore Hispaniola to near the Windward Passage. A westward
moving trough will pass north of Puerto Rico and Hispaniola into
mid-week, then approach the Bahamas by late week before shifting
west of the area, bringing fresh to locally strong winds and
locally rough seas.

Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 0000 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
0550 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave is along 24W from 06N to 17N, moving west at
around 5-10 kt. Scattered moderate convection is noted from 06N
to 14N between 21W and 28W.

A tropical wave is along 42W from 07N to 18N, moving west at 5-10
kt. Scattered moderate convection is limited to the southern wave
environment, from 05N to 08N between 38W and 44W.

A tropical wave is in the W Caribbean with axis near 80W,
extending southward from 19N, and moving west at 10 kt. Scattered
moderate convection is active in the lee side of Cuba and in the
Gulf of Honduras.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 16N16W and continues
southwestward to 10N26W to 08N38W. The ITCZ extends from 07N43W
to 07N54W. Aside from the convection associated with the tropical
waves, scattered moderate convection is from 05N to 10N between
30W and 40W, and from 06N to 10N between 44W and 51W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A 1016 mb high pressure is centered near 26N86W, supporting light
to gentle winds across most of the northern Gulf N of 26N and the
SE basin. A surface trough move off the Yucatan to the Gulf of
Campeche tonight, and is supporting moderate to fresh NE to E
winds over the SW basin. Moderate SE winds is also present in the
immediate offshores of E Mexico to near 94W. Seas basin-wide are
1-4 ft. Scattered showers and a few thunderstorms are active over
the SE Gulf S of 25N and E of 89W, and in the Bay of Campeche due
to the surface trough.

For the forecast, high pressure will generally dominate,
promoting gentle winds and slight to moderate seas into the
weekend. Pulses of fresh winds will occur west of the Yucatan
Peninsula each night, locally strong Wed night, along with
moderate seas.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Fresh to strong E trade winds and 7-10 ft seas persist across the
south-central and portions of the SW Caribbean, between high
pressure north of area and lower pressure over northern South
America. Moderate E winds and 3-6 ft seas are noted in the E
Caribbean. In the NW basin, trade winds are moderate to fresh and
seas slight to moderate. Scattered showers and thunderstorms are
active SE of the Dominican Republic.

For the forecast, the pressure gradient between Atlantic high
pressure and relatively lower pressure in northern South America
will continue to support strong trades, occasionally reaching near
gale, and associated rough seas, over the central basin into the
weekend. Fresh to locally strong winds will also pulse in the Gulf
of Honduras and Windward Passage. Otherwise, mainly moderate or
weaker winds and seas will prevail.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Scattered showers are active across the E Florida offshores,
including the seaboard. Farther east, a surface trough extending
from 27N61W to 20N63W is generating scattered showers and tstms
from 21N to 27N between 56W and 66W. Surface ridging prevails
elsewhere in the subtropical waters. In the far NE Atlantic,
strong to near- gale N-NE winds and moderate to rough seas are
evident off Morocco and in the water passages of the Canary
Islands. Elsewhere, gentle to moderate winds and moderate seas are
prevalent.

For the forecast west of 55W, a mid- and upper-level trough along
the SE U.S. coast will keep scattered thunderstorms ongoing
offshore Florida and in the vicinity of the Bahamas into Wed.
Locally strong trades will continue pulsing offshore Hispaniola to
near the Windward Passage. A westward moving trough will pass
north of Puerto Rico and Hispaniola Wed and Wed night, then
approach the Bahamas by late week before shifting west of the
area, bringing fresh to locally strong winds and locally rough
seas. Weak ridging settles across the northern and central waters
this weekend, bringing tranquil marine conditions.

to support fresh to strong trades in the south-central and portions
of the SW basin through Mon night. Over the weekend, the ridge N
of the region will shift southward, acting to increase the
pressure gradient and accelerating the winds offshore Colombia and
in the Gulf of Venezuela to near gale-force speed and to gale-
force speed at night. Rough seas will prevail there, building to
very rough at times this weekend with the increase in wind speed.
Fresh winds will pulse in the Gulf of Honduras and Windward
Passage. Otherwise, mainly moderate or weaker winds and seas will
prevail elsewhere.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

A mid-to-upper level trough extends from between Bermuda and
eastern Cuba is supporting scattered showers and thunderstorms
offshore Florida and in the vicinity of the Bahamas. Scattered
showers and thunderstorms are also active along a surface trough
extending from 27N67W to 20N71W. Fresh E winds and rough seas are
ongoing near the trough, from 23N to 26N between 65W and 672W. In
the far NE Atlantic, strong N-NE winds and moderate to rough seas
are evident off Morocco and in the passages of the Canary
Islands. Elsewhere, surface ridging prevails, with gentle to
moderate winds and moderate seas.

For the forecast west of 55W, the aforementioned mid-to-upper
level trough will keep scattered showers and thunderstorms ongoing
offshore Florida and in the vicinity of the Bahamas through at
least tonight. A westward moving surface trough moving N of
Hispaniola tonight will approach the Bahamas Thu before shifting
west of the area by late Fri, bringing fresh to locally strong
winds and locally rough seas. Winds may pulse to fresh to strong
at times from north of Hispaniola to the Windward Passage.
Otherwise, weak ridging settles across the northern and central
waters during the upcoming weekend and into early next week,
bringing tranquil marine conditions.

Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1215 UTC Thu Aug 6 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 0600 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1020 UTC.

...SPECIAL FEATURES...

Caribbean Gale Warning: The Bermuda High will shift southward to
the SW N Atlantic waters over the weekend, which will tighten the
pressure gradient in the central and portions of the SW Caribbean,
thus resulting in the acceleration of winds from fresh to strong
to fresh to near gale force off Colombia and in the Gulf of
Venezuela. Regional effects will further enhance the winds to
gale force offshore Colombia at night Fri and Sat, thus building
seas from rough to very rough. Please read the latest HIGH
SEAS FORECAST issued by the National Hurricane Center at website

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave is over the E Atlantic with axis near 33W,
extending from 06N to 16N, and moving west at around 15-20 kt.
Scattered moderate convection is from 06N to 13N between 31W and
39W.

A tropical wave is over the central Atlantic with axis near 48W,
extending from 07N to 18N, and moving west at 15-20 kt. No
significant convection is associated with this wave at this time.

A tropical wave is in the far W Caribbean with axis near 87W,
extending southward from 19N into the E Pacific waters, and
moving west at 10-15 kt. No significant convection is associated
with this wave at this time.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 20N16W and continues
southwestward to 11N30W to 10N40W. The ITCZ extends from 10N40W
to 09N45W, then resumes W of a tropical wave from 08N49W to 09N60W.
Aside from the convection associated with two tropical waves in
the section above, numerous moderate isolated strong convection is
offshore W Africa associated with the next tropical wave forecast
to emerge off the coast later this morning.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A 1025 mb high located just NW of Bermuda extends a ridge across
northern Florida SW into the Gulf, except for the Bay of Campeche
where a surface trough is generating scattered showers and
supporting moderate to fresh E winds along with moderate seas.
Elsewhere, return flow is gentle to moderate and seas slight.

For the forecast, surface ridging from the Bermuda High will
dominate across most of the Gulf through late Mon, supporting
gentle to moderate E to SE winds N of 22N along with slight seas.
Pulses of fresh winds will occur north and west of the Yucatan
Peninsula and into the Bay of Campeche each night as a surface
trough migrates from the Yucatan Peninsula to the SW Gulf. Slight
to moderate seas are forecast for this portion of the basin
through Mon night.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

lee side of Cuba. Seas are slight to moderate over the NW basin
and moderate over the E Caribbean. In terms of shower activity, a
surface trough starting to move across the Turks and Caicos is
supporting scattered showers and tstms in the Windward Passage
while the E extension of the E Pacific monsoon trough is
supporting similar convection offshore Costa Rica, Nicaragua and
Panama.

For the forecast, the pressure gradient between the Bermuda High
and relatively lower pressure in northern South America will
continue to support fresh to strong trades in the south-central
and portions of the SW basin through Mon night. Over the weekend,
the ridge N of the region will shift southward, acting to increase
the pressure gradient and accelerating the winds offshore
Colombia and in the Gulf of Venezuela to near gale-force speed and
to gale-force speed at night. Rough seas will prevail there,
building to very rough at times this weekend with the increase in
wind speed. Fresh winds will pulse in the Gulf of Honduras and
Windward Passage through the forecast period, except over the
weekend when winds are likely to pulse to strong speed. Otherwise,
mainly moderate to fresh easterlies will prevail elsewhere.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Surface ridging from the Azores-Bermuda Highs dominate the
subtropical Atlantic waters, which is supporting gentle to
moderate NE to E winds between 23W and 60W. Over the far NE
Atlantic, strong N-NE winds and moderate to rough seas are evident
off Morocco and in the passages of the Canary Islands while a
surface trough moving across the Turks and Caicos is supporting
fresh to strong winds and scattered heavy showers over the Bahamas
offshores.

For the forecast west of 55W, an upper-level low NE of Freeport
will continue to support scattered showers and thunderstorms
offshore E Florida and in the Great Bahama Bank through early this
evening. However, a westward moving surface trough over the
central and southern Bahamas offshores, will resume the shower
activity across the Florida seaboard and offshores Fri morning
before shifting west of the area Fri night into early Sat. Aside
from the shower activity, the surface trough will bring fresh to
locally strong winds and rough seas across the Bahamas offshores
through tonight. Fresh E winds will prevail N of Hispaniola and in
the approaches of the Windward Passage through the period,
reaching strong speeds Sun night into Mon as the Bermuda High
shifts southward.

America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1800 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
2130 UTC.

...SPECIAL FEATURES...

Caribbean Gale Warning: The pressure gradient between the Bermuda
High and the Colombian low will continue to support fresh to strong
trades in the south-central and portions of the SW Caribbean
through Mon night. Over the weekend, the ridge N of the region
will shift southward, acting to increase the pressure gradient and
accelerating the winds offshore Colombia and in the Gulf of
Venezuela to near gale-force speed and to gale-force speed at
night. Rough seas will prevail there, building to very rough at
times this weekend with the increase in wind speed.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave is along 19W south 20N. Scattered to numerous
moderate convection is noted from 09N to 13N between 20W and 25W.

A second tropical wave is along 39W S of 20N, and moving west at
15 to 20 kt. Scattered moderate convection is from 08N to 11N
between 34W and 40W.

A third tropical wave is along 52W S of 20N, moving west at 15 to
20 kt. No significant convection is associated with this wave at
this time.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of Senegal
near Dakar and continues southwestward to near 11N35W. The ITCZ
extends from 10N40W to the coast of Venezuela near 09.5N61W.
Aside from the convection associated with the tropical waves,
limited convective activity is noted elsewhere.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

Weak ridging extends from the western Atlantic to the west-central
Gulf. This pattern is supporting gentle to moderate E to SE winds
across the Gulf. Seas are 2-4 ft over the southwest Gulf and 1-3
ft elsewhere. Numerous showers and thunderstorms are moving off
the Florida coast north of Tampa Bay into the far northeast Gulf.
Scattered showers and thunderstorms are active elsewhere north of
the Yucatan Channel, and off the coast of Veracruz.

For the forecast, the surface ridging will dominate across most
of the Gulf through late Tue, supporting gentle to moderate E to
SE winds north of 24N along with slight seas. Pulses of fresh
winds will occur north and west of the Yucatan Peninsula and into
the Bay of Campeche each night as a surface trough migrates from
the Yucatan Peninsula to the SW Gulf, locally strong tonight.
Slight to moderate seas are forecast for this portion of the basin
through Tue night.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The pressure gradient between a 1027 mb high located near Bermuda
and the Colombian low continues to support fresh to strong trades
over the south-central Caribbean, including the Gulf of Venezuela,
along with moderate to rough seas. Moderate to locally fresh trades
are elsewhere over the E Caribbean, the Gulf of Honduras and in
the lee side of Cuba. Seas are generally moderate. Scattered
showers and thunderstorms are active from Jamaica to Grand Cayman
to the coast of Cuba.

For the forecast, the ridge north of the region will shift
southward, acting to increase the pressure gradient and
accelerating the winds offshore Colombia and in the Gulf of
Venezuela to near gale- force speed and to gale-force speed at
night. Rough seas will prevail there, building to very rough at
times this weekend with the increase in wind speed. Fresh winds
will pulse in the Gulf of Honduras and Windward Passage through
the forecast period, except over the weekend when winds may pulse
to strong speed. Otherwise, mainly moderate to fresh easterlies
will prevail elsewhere.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Scattered showers and thunderstorms are active off the central
Bahamas, and along a surface trough reaching from north of the
central Bahamas southward toward eastern Cuba. Farther north, 1027
mb high pressure is centered near Bermuda. Recent scatterometer
satellite passes confirmed fresh to strong E winds on the northern
end of the trough from 25N to 28N between 70W and 75W. A
concurrent altimeter satellite pass showed rough seas to 10 ft in
this area as well. Moderate to fresh easterly winds and 5-7 ft
seas prevail elsewhere west of of 65W. Farther east, fresh to
strong NE winds and 5-7 ft seas are noted across the Canary
Islands and off Western Sahara. Gentle to moderate easterly flow
and 4-6 ft seas are noted over the remainder of the basin.

For the forecast west of 55W, the surface trough will induce
additional shower and thunderstorm activity across the Florida
seaboard and offshores Fri morning before shifting west of the
area Fri night into early Sat. Aside from the shower activity, the
surface trough will bring fresh to locally strong winds and rough
seas across the Bahamas offshores through tonight. Fresh E winds
will prevail N of Hispaniola and in the approaches of the Windward
Passage through the period, reaching strong speeds Sun night, Mon
night, and Tue night as the Bermuda High shifts southward.

remainder subtropical Atlantic waters, thus providing moderate or
weaker winds between 30W and 65W. East of 30W, fresh to locally
strong NE winds and moderate seas prevail across the Canary
Islands and off Western Sahara.

For the forecast west of 55W, a westward moving surface trough
over the northern Bahamas offshores will support showers and
thunderstorms activity across the Florida seaboard and offshores
through this morning before shifting west of the area tonight into
early Sat. Aside from the shower activity, the surface trough
will bring fresh winds and moderate to rough seas across the
Bahamas offshores through this afternoon. Fresh E winds will

High and the Colombian low will continue to support fresh to strong
trades in the south-central and portions of the SW Caribbean
through Tue night. Over the weekend, the ridge N of the region
will shift southward, acting to increase the pressure gradient and
accelerating the winds offshore Colombia and in the Gulf of
Venezuela to near gale-force speed and to gale-force speed at
night. Rough seas will prevail there, building to very rough at
times this weekend with the increase in wind speed.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave is E of the Cape Verde Islands with axis near 22W,
extending from 05N to 19N, and moving west at 5-10 kt. Numerous
moderate to strong convection extends from 06N to 20N between 11W
and 22W.

A tropical wave is in the central Atlantic with axis near 41W,
extending from 05N to 19N, and moving west at 15-20 kt. No
significant convection is associated with this wave at this time.

A tropical wave is E of the Lesser Antilles with axis near 53W,
extending from 05N to 20N, and moving west at 15-20 kt. Scattered
moderate convection extends from 07N to 12N between 48W and 58W.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 17N16W to 12N38W. The
ITCZ continues from 10N41W to 06N57W. Aside from the convection
associated with the tropical waves, limited convective activity is
noted elsewhere.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

Weak ridging extends from the southwestern Atlantic to the
western Gulf. This pattern is supporting gentle to moderate E to
SE winds across the Gulf and slight seas. In the Bay of Campeche,
a surface trough is supporting moderate to fresh winds as well as
scattered showers. Otherwise, scattered showers associated with a
surface trough moving across the northern Bahamas are reaching the
SE Gulf.

For the forecast, surface ridging from the Bermuda High will
dominate across most of the Gulf through late Tue, supporting
gentle to moderate E to SE winds north of 24N along with slight
seas. Pulses of fresh winds will occur north and west of the
Yucatan Peninsula and into the Bay of Campeche each night as a
surface trough migrates from the Yucatan Peninsula to the SW Gulf.
Slight to moderate seas are forecast for this portion of the
basin through Tue night.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The pressure gradient between a 1025 mb high located NW of
Bermuda, and the Colombian low continues to support fresh to
strong trades over the south-central Caribbean, including the Gulf
of Venezuela, along with moderate to rough seas. Moderate to
fresh trades are elsewhere over the SW and E Caribbean with
moderate seas. Otherwise, an upper-level low centered between
Jamaica and Haiti is supporting scattered showers and
thunderstorms in the Windward Passage and the lee side of Cuba.

For the forecast, the pressure gradient between the Bermuda High
and relatively lower pressure in northern South America will
continue to support fresh to strong trades in the south-central
and portions of the SW basin through Tue night. Over the weekend,
the ridge N of the region will shift southward, acting to increase
the pressure gradient and accelerating the winds offshore
Colombia and in the Gulf of Venezuela to near gale-force speed and
to gale-force speed at night. Rough seas will prevail there,
building to very rough at times this weekend with the increase in
wind speed. Fresh winds will pulse in the Gulf of Honduras and
Windward Passage through the forecast period, except over the
weekend when winds may pulse to strong speed. Otherwise, mainly
moderate to fresh easterlies will prevail elsewhere.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Scattered showers and thunderstorms are active across the northern
Bahamas and adjacent waters due to a westward moving surface
trough. Aside from the shower activity, the trough is bringing
moderate to fresh E to SE winds to the Bahamas offshores along
with moderate to locally rough seas. Surface ridging dominate the
remainder subtropical Atlantic waters, thus providing moderate or
weaker winds between 30W and 65W. East of 30W, fresh to locally
strong NE winds and moderate seas prevail across the Canary
Islands and off Western Sahara.

For the forecast west of 55W, a westward moving surface trough
over the northern Bahamas offshores will support showers and
thunderstorms activity across the Florida seaboard and offshores
through this morning before shifting west of the area tonight into
early Sat. Aside from the shower activity, the surface trough
will bring fresh winds and moderate to rough seas across the
Bahamas offshores through this afternoon. Fresh E winds will
prevail N of Hispaniola and in the approaches of the Windward
Passage through the period, reaching strong speeds Sun night, Mon
night, and Tue night as the Bermuda High shifts southward.

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 0600 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
0930 UTC.

...SPECIAL FEATURES...

Caribbean Gale Warning: The pressure gradient between a 1025 mb
Bermuda High and the Colombian low will continue to support fresh
to strong trades in the south-central and portions of the SW basin
through next week. Winds tonight have pulsed to minimal gale-force
offshore of Colombia and inside the Gulf of Venezuela. The
associated ridge N of the region will gradually shift southward
to along 28N through Tue to maintain strong to near gale-force
winds across the south central Caribbean. Winds will diminish to
below gale-force around sunrise this morning and then increase
again to gale-force tonight. Seas will build into the 12-13 ft
range during the time of the gale-force winds. Please read the
latest HIGH SEAS FORECAST issued by the National Hurricane Center

...TROPICAL WAVES...

An Atlantic tropical wave is moving away from the Cabo Verde
Islands, with axis along 28W from 06N to 19N, moving west at 10
to 15 kt. Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms are noted
from 08.5N TO 12.5N between 27W and 31W.

An Atlantic tropical wave is analyzed near 47W, and extends from
05N to 19N, moving west at 10 to 15 kt. Scattered moderate
convection is noted from 06N to 10N between 41W and 47W.

A tropical wave is analyzed along 59W-60W, approaching the Lesser
Antilles, extending from 05N to 20N, and moving west at 10 to 15
kt. Scattered moderate convection is noted from 08N to 11.5N
between 54W and 60W.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 12N16.5W and
continues westward to near 10N44.5W. The ITCZ extends from 10N48W
to 09.5N58W. Aside from the convection associated with the
tropical waves, scattered moderate isolated strong convection
is noted from 06.5N to 12N E of 24W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A 1024 mb high is located just NW of Bermuda and extends a western
Atlantic ridge westward along 33N and across the Carolinas. A
surface trough has moved westward across Florida, and extends from
the extreme SW Gulf to near Jacksonville, with the ridge drapped
across it over the northeast Gulf. This pattern is supporting
gentle to moderate E to SE winds and 1-3 ft seas across the basin,
except for moderate NE winds across the eastern Bay of Campeche.
Widely scattered showers are across the coastal waters of SW
Florida, and dot the waters elsewhere W of 88W.

For the forecast, the surface ridge will dominate most of the
Gulf basin through late Tue. This will support gentle to
moderate E to SE winds north of 24N with slight seas. Pulses of
fresh winds will occur north and west of the Yucatan Peninsula
and into the Bay of Campeche each evening and night as a surface
trough migrates from the Yucatan Peninsula westward across the
SW Gulf.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Refer to the section above for details on the Gale Warning in
effect for the waters N of Colombia and the Gulf of Venezuela.

The pressure gradient between a 1024 mb high pressure located NW
of Bermuda near 33N67W and the Colombian low continues to support
fresh to strong trades over the south-central Caribbean S of 16N
and between 68W and 80W. Seas are 6 to 9 ft across much of this
area except 10 to 13 ft in the gale winds offshore of Colombia.
Moderate to fresh trades are over the E Caribbean while gentle to
moderate E winds are observed elsewhere. Seas are moderate with
these winds. Scattered moderate convection extends from Haiti
northwestward to 80W and offshore of central Cuba.

For the forecast, the pressure gradient between the Atlantic ridge
and the Colombian low will continue to support fresh to strong
trades in the south-central and portions of the SW basin through
next week, with gale- force winds occurring early this morning and
again Saturday night offshore of Colombia. The ridge N of the
region will gradually shift southward to along 28N through Tue and
maintain near gale- force winds offshore Colombia and in the Gulf
of Venezuela each night. Winds will pulse fresh to locally strong
during the evenings and night in the Gulf of Honduras and
Windward Passage through the forecast period. Otherwise, mainly
moderate to fresh trades will prevail elsewhere.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Scattered showers and thunderstorms are active over the Atlantic
waters north of the Bahamas and W of 76W, following a low level
trough currently moving across the Florida peninsula and into the
eastern Gulf of America. Broad ridging centered on a 1024 mb high
just NW of Bemuda dominates the Atlantic north of 24N and west of
50W, supporting gentle to moderate E to SE winds and 4-6 ft
W of 50W. A central Atlantic cold front extends southwestward to
near 33N50W and weakens the ridge across the central basin. An
Azores High dominates the basin est of 40W, producing fresh to
strong NE winds near the Canary Islands, where seas are 6 to 8 ft.
Saharan air and dust covers much of the Atlantic north of 12N and
east of 55W.

For the forecast west of 55W, the surface trough moving across
Florida will shift NW and further inland today. Scattered showers
and thunderstorms occurring E of the trough to 77W will shift
northwestward behind the trough today, then persist N of 30N
through Sun. Otherwise, a 1024 mb Bermuda High will shift
slightly southward to along 28N through Tue. Fresh E winds will
prevail N of Hispaniola and in the approach to the Windward
Passage through the period, pulsing to strong speeds each evening
and night.

Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1815 UTC Sat Aug 8 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1600 UTC.

...SPECIAL FEATURES...

Caribbean Gale Warning: The pressure gradient between a 1024 mb
Bermuda High and relatively lower pressure in northern South
America will continue to support fresh to strong trades in the
south-central and portions of the SW Caribbean through next week,
with gale-force winds occurring again tonight offshore of Colombia.
The ridge N of the region will gradually shift southward to along
28N through Tue and maintain strong to near gale-force winds
offshore Colombia and in the Gulf of Venezuela each night. Seas
will build into the 12 to 13 ft range during the time of the
gale-force winds.

Please read the latest HIGH SEAS FORECAST issued by the National
Hurricane Center at website - https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/MIAHSFAT2.shtml__;!!DZ3fjg!6GVjJ0Fb8MWiKdl5dQ6VSjaQVQC2kEF-M87gI5lDwU7c0cMDZIfpwAcG5v_nIX2iukOb62N89za6HRZkXn8q9qu0ums$ for more details.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave is west of the Cabo Verde Islands, with axis
near 29W from 06N to 19N, moving west at 10 to 15 kt. Scattered
moderate convection is where the wave meets the monsoon trough.
Scattered moderate to isolated strong convection is behind the
wave axis covering the waters from 07N to 13N between 17W and
25W.

The tropical wave previously located along 47W is relocated farther
E near 40W based on the tropical wave diagnostic, satellite imagery
and scatterometer data. Satellite imagery show a broad cyclonic
circulation near the northern end of the wave axis. Scattered moderate convection is also where the wave meets the monsoon trough.

A tropical wave is analyzed east of the Lesser Antilles along 59W/60W, extending from 05N to 20N, and moving west at 10 to 15 kt. Scattered
moderate convection is noted near the wave axis.

Looking ahead, a tropical wave is expected to move off the west
coast of Africa on Tuesday. Some development of this system will
be possible during the middle to latter part of next week while it
moves westward across the eastern and central tropical Atlantic.
The latest Tropical Weather Outlook gives this system a low chance
of tropical cyclone formation through 7 days.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
Senegal south of Dakar near 14N17W and continues westward to near
11N38W. The ITCZ extends from 11N41W to 10N54W to 11N58W. Most of
the convective activity across the area is related to the tropical
waves.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A 1024 mb high pressure located just NW of Bermuda extends a ridge
across the SE of the United States into the Gulf region. A surface
trough has moved westward across Florida, and now extends from
northern Florida to near 25N85W. This pattern is supporting gentle
to moderate E to SE winds and 1 to 3 ft seas across the basin,
except for moderate NE winds across the eastern Bay of Campeche.
Showers and thunderstorms continue to dot the Gulf waters, more
concentrated from 23N to 27N between 87W and 94W. A diffluent
pattern aloft is helping to induce this convective activity.

For the forecast, the surface trough extending into the eastern
Gulf will support scattered showers and thunderstorms through this
afternoon as the trough moves inland. Similar activity is expected
in the Bay of Campeche and SW Gulf. Otherwise, a surface ridge
will dominate most of the basin through late Tue. This will support
gentle to moderate E to SE winds north of 24N with slight seas.
Pulses of fresh winds will occur north and west of the Yucatan
Peninsula and into the Bay of Campeche each evening and night as a
diurnal surface trough migrates from the Yucatan Peninsula westward
across the SW Gulf.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Refer to the section above for details on the Gale Warning in effect
for the waters N of Colombia.

The pressure gradient between a 1024 mb high pressure located NW
of Bermuda near 33N68W and the Colombian low continues to support
fresh to strong trades over the south-central Caribbean. Seas are
8 to 12 ft across much of this area. Buoy 42058 located near
14N76W is reporting seas of 10 ft. Moderate to fresh trades are
over the E Caribbean while gentle to moderate E winds are observed
elsewhere. Seas are moderate with these winds. Scattered showers
and thunderstorms are between Cuba and Jamaica, across the Cayman
Islands and regional waters, and south of western Cuba, including
the Yucatan Channel.

For the forecast, the pressure between a 1024 mb Bermuda High
and relatively lower pressure in northern South America will
continue to support fresh to strong trades in the south-central
and portions of the SW basin through next week, with gale-force
winds occurring again tonight offshore of Colombia. The ridge N
of the region will gradually shift southward to along 28N through
Tue and maintain strong to near gale-force winds offshore Colombia
and in the Gulf of Venezuela each night. Winds will pulse up to
fresh to locally strong speeds during the evenings and nights in
the Gulf of Honduras and Windward Passage through the forecast
period. Otherwise, mainly moderate to fresh trades will prevail
elsewhere. The Atlantic ridge looks to shift farther southward
later next week, which may act to increase easterly trade winds
again across the basin.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Scattered showers and thunderstorms are active over the Atlantic
waters north of the Bahamas and W of 75W, following a surface
trough currently located over northern Florida and the eastern
Gulf of America. A broad ridge, centered on a 1024 mb high
pressure located just NW of Bermuda, dominates the western
Atlantic supporting gentle to moderate E to SE winds and seas of 4
to 6 ft with the exception of moderate to locally fresh winds
offshore Hispaniola to about 22N. An Azores High of 1024 mb
dominates the remainder of the Atlantic forecast waters producing
fresh to strong NE winds between the Canary Islands and offshore
Western Sahara, where seas are 6 to 8 ft. Saharan air and dust
covers much of the Atlantic north of 12N and east of 60W, and most
of the east and central Caribbean based on the Saharan Air Layer
(SAL) Tracking Product from CIMSS.

For the forecast west of 55W, the surface trough extending across
northern Florida will shift NW and further inland today. Scattered
showers and thunderstorms occurring E of the trough to about 75W
will shift northwestward today, then persist N of 30N through Sun.
Otherwise, a 1024 mb Bermuda High and an attendant ridge will
shift slightly southward to along 28N through Tue. Fresh E winds
will prevail N of Hispaniola and in the approach to the Windward
Passage through the period, pulsing to strong speeds each evening
and night. The Atlantic ridge then looks to drop a bit farther
southward later next week, which may result in stronger easterly
winds.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave is near 29W from 06N to 19N, moving west at 10
to 15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is where the wave meets
the monsoon trough. Scattered moderate convection is from 09N to
12N between 27W and 33W.

The tropical wave is along 41W from 07N to 19N moving west at 10
to 15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is from 08N and 12N
between 37W and 44W.

A tropical wave is near 57W from 09N to 19N, moving west at 10 to
15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is from 10N to 13N between
55W and 60W.

Looking ahead, a tropical wave is expected to move off the west
coast of Africa on Tuesday. Some development of this system will
be possible during the middle to latter part of next week while it
moves westward across the eastern and central tropical Atlantic.
The latest Tropical Weather Outlook gives this system a low chance
of tropical cyclone formation through 7 days.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
Senegal near 16N16N and continues westward to near 11N25W then on
to 12N40W. The ITCZ extends from 11N42W to 10N55W. Most of the
convective activity across the area is related to the tropical
waves.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A trough over the eastern Gulf extends from the Florida Big Bend
area to 25N85W. Another trough is over the Bay of Campeche. This
weak pressure pattern is supporting mostly light breezes and 1-3
ft seas across the basin. Diffluent flow aloft is supporting
scattered showers and thunderstorms across the central and west-
central parts of the basin.

For the forecast, the surface trough extending southwestward from the
Big Bend of Florida into the eastern Gulf will support scattered
showers and thunderstorms through this afternoon as the trough
moves inland. Similar activity is expected in the Bay of
Campeche and SW Gulf with the passage of a diurnal surface
trough. Otherwise, a surface ridge extends from the Bermuda High
westward across the northern Gulf, and will dominate most of the
basin through late Tue. This will support gentle to moderate E
to SE winds north of 24N with slight seas. Pulses of fresh winds
will occur north and west of the Yucatan Peninsula and into the
Bay of Campeche each evening and night as a diurnal surface
trough migrates from the Yucatan Peninsula westward across the
SW Gulf.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Refer to the section above for details on the Gale Warning in effect
for the waters north of Colombia.

The pressure gradient between a 1023 mb high pressure located west
of Bermuda near 32N68W and the Colombian low continues to support
fresh to strong trades over the south-central Caribbean. Seas are
8 to 12 ft across much of this area. Moderate to fresh trades are
over the E Caribbean while gentle to moderate E winds are
observed elsewhere. Seas are moderate with these winds. Scattered
showers and thunderstorms are between Cuba and Jamaica, across the
Cayman Islands and regional waters, and south of western Cuba,
including the Yucatan Channel.

For the forecast, the pattern will continue to support fresh to
strong trades in the south-central and portions of the SW basin
through next week, with gale-force winds occurring again tonight
offshore of Colombia. The ridge N of the region will gradually
shift southward to along 28N through Tue and maintain strong to
near gale-force winds offshore Colombia and in the Gulf of
Venezuela each night. Winds will pulse up to fresh to locally
strong speeds during the evenings and nights in the Gulf of
Honduras and Windward Passage through the forecast period.
Otherwise, mainly moderate to fresh trades will prevail elsewhere.
The Atlantic ridge looks to shift farther southward later next
week, which may act to increase easterly trade winds again across
the basin.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Scattered showers and thunderstorms are active off northeast
Florida and the northern Bahamas, related to diffluent flow
aloft. A broad ridge dominates the waters north of 25N across the
basin, broken only by a trough reaching from 31N45W to 25N55W.
Saharan dust is evident mainly east of this trough, north of 15N.
The pattern is supporting moderate to fresh trade winds south of
22N and west of 60W with 4-6 ft seas, fresh to strong NE winds and
5-7 ft seas over the Canary Islands, and mostly gentle to
moderate breezes and 3-5 ft seas elsewhere.

For the forecast west of 55W, a low level trough extending across
northern Florida will shift NW and further inland today.
Scattered showers and thunderstorms occurring E of the trough to
75W will shift northwestward today, then persist N of 30N through
Sun. Otherwise, a 1023 mb Bermuda High and an attendant ridge will
shift slightly southward to along 28N through Tue. Fresh E winds
will prevail N of Hispaniola and in the approach to the Windward
Passage through the period, pulsing to strong speeds each evening
and night. The Atlantic ridge then looks to drop a bit farther
southward later next week, which may result in stronger easterly
winds.

America will continue to support fresh to strong trades in the
south-central and portions of the SW Caribbean through next week,
with gale-force winds occurring again tonight offshore of Colombia.
The ridge N of the region will gradually shift southward to along
28N through Tue and maintain strong to near gale-force winds
offshore Colombia and in the Gulf of Venezuela each night. Seas
will build into the 12 to 13 ft range during the time of the
gale-force winds.

Hurricane Center at website - https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/MIAHSFAT2.shtml__;!!DZ3fjg!5FJztA3jWYb6hW6Lo0eB4Pg447LT0xjk677E0WKIqRtFmuFyNpXTwtuQ8njEU6yqL8OFASVz_DxTK54kM7ZGUi3Ugh0$ for more details.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave is near 29W from 06N to 19N, moving west at 10
to 15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is where the wave meets
the monsoon trough. Scattered moderate convection is from 09N to
12N between 27W and 33W.

The tropical wave is along 41W from 07N to 19N moving west at 10
to 15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is from 08N and 12N
between 37W and 44W.

A tropical wave is near 57W from 09N to 19N, moving west at 10 to
15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is from 10N to 13N between
55W and 60W.

Looking ahead, a tropical wave is expected to move off the west
coast of Africa on Tuesday. Some development of this system will
be possible during the middle to latter part of next week while it
moves westward across the eastern and central tropical Atlantic.
The latest Tropical Weather Outlook gives this system a low chance
of tropical cyclone formation through 7 days.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
Senegal near 16N16N and continues westward to near 11N25W then on
to 12N40W. The ITCZ extends from 11N42W to 10N55W. Most of the
convective activity across the area is related to the tropical
waves.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A trough over the eastern Gulf extends from the Florida Big Bend
area to 25N85W. Another trough is over the Bay of Campeche. This
weak pressure pattern is supporting mostly light breezes and 1-3
ft seas across the basin. Diffluent flow aloft is supporting
scattered showers and thunderstorms across the central and west-
central parts of the basin.

For the forecast, the surface trough extending southwestward from the
Big Bend of Florida into the eastern Gulf will support scattered
showers and thunderstorms through this afternoon as the trough
moves inland. Similar activity is expected in the Bay of
Campeche and SW Gulf with the passage of a diurnal surface
trough. Otherwise, a surface ridge extends from the Bermuda High
westward across the northern Gulf, and will dominate most of the
basin through late Tue. This will support gentle to moderate E
to SE winds north of 24N with slight seas. Pulses of fresh winds
will occur north and west of the Yucatan Peninsula and into the
Bay of Campeche each evening and night as a diurnal surface
trough migrates from the Yucatan Peninsula westward across the
SW Gulf.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Refer to the section above for details on the Gale Warning in effect
for the waters north of Colombia.

The pressure gradient between a 1023 mb high pressure located west
of Bermuda near 32N68W and the Colombian low continues to support
fresh to strong trades over the south-central Caribbean. Seas are
8 to 12 ft across much of this area. Moderate to fresh trades are
over the E Caribbean while gentle to moderate E winds are
observed elsewhere. Seas are moderate with these winds. Scattered
showers and thunderstorms are between Cuba and Jamaica, across the
Cayman Islands and regional waters, and south of western Cuba,
including the Yucatan Channel.

For the forecast, the pattern will continue to support fresh to
strong trades in the south-central and portions of the SW basin
through next week, with gale-force winds occurring again tonight
offshore of Colombia. The ridge N of the region will gradually
shift southward to along 28N through Tue and maintain strong to
near gale-force winds offshore Colombia and in the Gulf of
Venezuela each night. Winds will pulse up to fresh to locally
strong speeds during the evenings and nights in the Gulf of
Honduras and Windward Passage through the forecast period.
Otherwise, mainly moderate to fresh trades will prevail elsewhere.
The Atlantic ridge looks to shift farther southward later next
week, which may act to increase easterly trade winds again across
the basin.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Scattered showers and thunderstorms are active off northeast
Florida and the northern Bahamas, related to diffluent flow
aloft. A broad ridge dominates the waters north of 25N across the
basin, broken only by a trough reaching from 31N45W to 25N55W.
Saharan dust is evident mainly east of this trough, north of 15N.
The pattern is supporting moderate to fresh trade winds south of
22N and west of 60W with 4-6 ft seas, fresh to strong NE winds and
5-7 ft seas over the Canary Islands, and mostly gentle to
moderate breezes and 3-5 ft seas elsewhere.

For the forecast west of 55W, a low level trough extending across
northern Florida will shift NW and further inland today.
Scattered showers and thunderstorms occurring E of the trough to
75W will shift northwestward today, then persist N of 30N through
Sun. Otherwise, a 1023 mb Bermuda High and an attendant ridge will
shift slightly southward to along 28N through Tue. Fresh E winds
will prevail N of Hispaniola and in the approach to the Windward
Passage through the period, pulsing to strong speeds each evening
and night. The Atlantic ridge then looks to drop a bit farther
southward later next week, which may result in stronger easterly
winds.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave is near 35W-36W from 07N to 19N, moving west near
15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is where the wave meets the
monsoon trough. Scattered moderate isolated strong convection is
from 07.5N to 12.5N between 32W and 42W.

A tropical wave is along 43W from 12N to 21N, moving west at 10
to 15 kt. Saharan Air surrounds this wave, and thus no
significant convection currently accompanies the wave.

A tropical wave has entered the eastern Caribbean, and is along
62W from 09N to 18N, moving west at 10 to 15 kt. Scattered
moderate convection is from 12N to 16N between 59W and 65W. Recent
satellite scatterometer data shows fresh to strong winds from 13N
to 21.5N on either side of the wave axis.

Looking ahead, a tropical wave is expected to move off the west
coast of Africa on Tuesday. Some development of this system will
be possible during the middle to latter part of next week while it
moves westward across the eastern and central tropical Atlantic.
The latest Tropical Weather Outlook gives this system a medium
chance of tropical cyclone formation through 7 days.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
Mauritania near 20N16N and continues southwestward to near 11N22.5W
then on to 11N43W. The ITCZ extends from 10.5N44W to 09N50W to
12N61W. Scattered moderate to strong convection is noted from 06N
to 17N E of 20W to the coast of Africa. Scattered moderate
convection is noted from 06N to 12N between 21W and 31W.
Elsewhere, convective activity across the area is related to the
tropical waves.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A low level trough over the eastern Gulf extends from the Florida
Big Bend area to near 26N85.5W. Scattered moderate convection is
seen east of this trough to interior portions of central Florida.
A 1023 mb Bermuda High extends a weak ridge westward along 32N and
inland across the northern Gulf states, and drapped across the
low level trough. This weak pressure pattern across the Gulf is
supporting mostly light to gentle breezes and 1-3 ft seas across
the basin. Moderate to fresh NE winds are occurring across the
western coastal waters of the Yucatan Peninsula, ahead of a
thermal trough there. Diffluent flow aloft is supporting
scattered showers and a few thunderstorms across the central
portions of the basin, and along the Mexican coast between Cabo
Rojo and Veracruz.

For the forecast, the surface trough extending southwestward from
the Florida Big Bend into the eastern Gulf will support scattered
showers and thunderstorms through tonight as the trough shifts NW
and inland. Similar activity is expected in the Bay of Campeche
and SW Gulf with the passage of a diurnal surface trough.
Otherwise, a surface ridge extends from the Bermuda High westward
across the northern Gulf, and will dominate most of the basin
through late Tue. This will support gentle to moderate E to SE
winds north of 24N with slight seas. Pulses of fresh winds will
occur north and west of the Yucatan Peninsula and into the Bay of
Campeche each evening and night as a diurnal surface trough
migrates from the Yucatan Peninsula westward across the SW Gulf.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Refer to the section above for details on the Gale Warning in effect
for the waters north of Colombia.

The pressure gradient between a 1023 mb high pressure located just west
of Bermuda and a 1007 mb Colombian low continues to support fresh
to strong trades over the south-central Caribbean south of 16N and
between 68W and 80W. Seas are 6 to 11 ft across much of this
area. Fresh to locally strong trade accompany a tropical wave
across the eastern Caribbean, to the N of 14N, where seas are 4 to
6 ft. Active weather near the wave is described above. Moderate
to fresh trades are over the remainder of the E Caribbean while
gentle to moderate E winds are observed elsewhere. Seas are
2 to 5 ft with these winds. Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms continue between Cuba and Jamaica, across the Cayman Islands and
regional waters, including the Yucatan Channel, and are supported
by upper level troughing extending from the NE Caribbean west-
northwestward to the Yucatan channel.

For the forecast, the ridge N of the basin will gradually shift
southward to along 28N through Tue and maintain strong to near
gale-force winds offshore Colombia and in the Gulf of Venezuela
each night. Winds will pulse fresh to strong speeds during the
evenings and nights in the Gulf of Honduras and Windward Passage
through the forecast period. Otherwise, moderate to fresh trades
will prevail elsewhere. The Atlantic ridge will shift farther
southward later next week, which may combine with an approaching
tropical wave to increase easterly trade winds again across the
basin.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Scattered showers and a few thunderstorms continue off northeast
Florida, N of 29N and extend northeastward to 74W, to the east of
a low level trough moving across the NE Gulf of America and
extending into SE Georgia. A broad ridge dominates the waters
north of 25N across the basin, broken only by a trough reaching
from 32N50W to 28N57W. Saharan air and suspended dust is evident
east of this trough, north of 13N. The pattern is supporting
moderate to fresh trade winds south of 22N and west of 55W into
the E Caribbean, where seas are 4 to 7 ft. South of 22N and east
of 55W gentle to moderate trades prevail to the Cabo Verde
Islands, where seas are 4 to 5 ft. Fresh to strong NE winds and
5-8 ft seas extend from the Canary Islands southwestward to 20N.
Elsewhere within the ridge, mostly gentle to moderate breezes and
3-5 ft seas prevail.

For the forecast west of 55W, scattered showers across the NW
zones off of Florida will diminish overnight as a surface trough,
currently over the eastern Gulf of America, continues to move W
away from the area. Otherwise, a 1023 mb Bermuda High will shift
southward to along 28N through Tue. Fresh E winds will prevail N
of Hispaniola and in the approach to the Windward Passage through
the period, pulsing to strong speeds each evening and night. The
Atlantic ridge will sink a bit farther southward later next week,
which may combine with an approaching tropical wave to produce
stronger easterly winds. Of note, a tropical wave is expected to
move off the west coast of Africa on Tuesday. Gradual development
will be possible thereafter and a tropical depression could form
during the second half of next week while the system moves
westward across the eastern and central tropical Atlantic. The
latest Tropical Weather Outlook gives this system a medium chance
of tropical cyclone formation through 7 days.

A tropical wave is near 37W from 08N to 17N, moving west near 15
kt. Scattered moderate convection is from 08N to 13N between
32W-44W.

A tropical wave is along 46W from 13N to 24N, moving west at 10
to 15 kt. Saharan Air surrounds this wave, and thus no significant
convection currently accompanies the wave.

A tropical wave is along 64W and S of 20N, moving west at 10 to
15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is along the wave axis and N
of 14N.

Looking ahead, a tropical wave is expected to move off the west
coast of Africa on Tuesday. Some development of this system will
be possible during the middle to latter part of the week while it
moves westward across the eastern and central tropical Atlantic.
The latest Tropical Weather Outlook gives this system a medium
chance of tropical cyclone formation through 7 days.

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 20N17N and continues
southwestward to 10N44W. The ITCZ extends from 10N46W to 12N64W.
Scattered moderate convection is noted alond the ITCZ between 48W
and 54W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A low level trough over the northeastern Gulf extends from the
Florida panhandle area to near 26N92W. Scattered moderate
convection is noted with this trough. A 1023 mb Bermuda High
extends a weak ridge westward along 32N and inland across the
northern Gulf states, and drapped across the trough. This weak
pressure pattern across the Gulf is supporting mostly light to
gentle breezes and 1-3 ft seas across the basin. Moderate to fresh
NE winds are occurring across the western coastal waters of the
Yucatan Peninsula, ahead of a thermal trough there. Diffluent flow
aloft is supporting scattered showers and a few thunderstorms
across the central portions of the basin, and along the Mexican
coast between Cabo Rojo and Veracruz.

For the forecast, the surface trough will support scattered
showers and thunderstorms through today as the trough moves
inland. Similar activity is noted in the Bay of Campeche and SW
Gulf with the passage of a diurnal surface trough. The surface
ridge will dominate most of the basin through late Tue. This will
support gentle to moderate E to SE winds north of 24N with slight
seas. Pulses of fresh winds will occur north and west of the
Yucatan Peninsula and into the Bay of Campeche each evening and
night as a diurnal surface trough migrates from the Yucatan
Peninsula westward across the SW Gulf.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Refer to the section above for details on the Gale Warning in effect
for the waters north of Colombia and the tropical wave moving
across the basin.

The pressure gradient between a 1023 mb high pressure located just west
of Bermuda and a 1008 mb Colombian low continues to support fresh
to strong trades over the south-central Caribbean south of 16N
and between 68W and 80W. Seas are 6 to 11 ft across much of this
area. Fresh to strong trade accompany a tropical wave across the
eastern Caribbean, to the N of 14N, where seas are 4 to 6 ft.
Active weather near the wave is described above. Moderate to fresh
trades are over the remainder of the E Caribbean while gentle to
moderate E winds are observed elsewhere. Seas are 2 to 5 ft with
these winds. Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms continue
between Cuba and Jamaica, across the Cayman Islands and regional
waters, including the Yucatan Channel, and are supported by upper
level troughing extending from the NE Caribbean west-
northwestward to the Yucatan channel.

For the forecast, the ridge N of the basin will gradually shift
southward to along 28N through Tue and maintain strong to near
gale-force winds offshore Colombia and in the Gulf of Venezuela
each night. Winds will pulse fresh to strong speeds during the
evenings and nights in the Gulf of Honduras and Windward Passage
through the forecast period. Otherwise, moderate to fresh trades
will prevail elsewhere. The Atlantic ridge will shift farther
southward later this week, which may combine with an approaching
tropical wave to increase easterly trade winds again across the
basin.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Refer to the section above for details on the tropical waves
moving across the basin.

Scattered showers continue off northeast Florida, N of 29N and W
of 80W, to the east of a low level trough moving across the NE
Gulf of America and extending into SE Georgia. A broad ridge
dominates the waters north of 25N across the basin, broken only by
a trough reaching from 31N49W to 27N56W. Saharan air and
suspended dust is evident east of this trough, north of 13N. The
pattern is supporting moderate to fresh trade winds south of 22N
and west of 55W into the E Caribbean, where seas are 4 to 7 ft.
South of 22N and east of 55W gentle to moderate trades prevail to
the Cabo Verde Islands, where seas are 4 to 5 ft. Fresh to strong
NE winds and 5-8 ft seas extend from the Canary Islands
southwestward to 20N. Elsewhere within the ridge, gentle to
moderate breezes and 3-5 ft seas prevail.

For the forecast west of 55W, scattered showers across the NW
zones off of Florida will diminish today as the surface trough
over the northeastern Gulf of America, continues to move NW away
from the area. The Bermuda High will shift southward to along 28N
through Tue. Fresh E winds will prevail N of Hispaniola and in
the approach to the Windward Passage through the period, pulsing
to strong speeds each evening and night. The Atlantic ridge will
drop a bit farther southward later next week, which may result in
stronger easterly winds.

Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1215 UTC Sun Aug 9 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 0600 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1000 UTC.

...SPECIAL FEATURES...

Caribbean Gale Warning: The pressure gradient between a 1023 mb
Bermuda High and lower pressure in northern South America will
continue to support fresh to strong trades in the south-central
and portions of the SW Caribbean through the middle of next week,
with gale-force winds occurring through this morning offshore of
Colombia, and near gale-force winds in the Gulf of Venezuela. The
ridge N of the region will shift southward to along 28N through
Tue and maintain strong to near-gale winds offshore Colombia and
in the Gulf of Venezuela each night. Seas to 13 ft are expected
during the time of the gale-force winds, and then peak at 10 to
11 ft each of the next few nights.

Please read the latest HIGH SEAS FORECAST issued by the National
Hurricane Center at website - https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/MIAHSFAT2.shtml__;!!DZ3fjg!_hk48wtFMMjZUWboreG4u-4fhFYKF7Nvkqz6STzWghb92J_busYMBpduU9H7uDt7GW7DKOpLU3o6a-WcsVVszRyicaE$ for more details.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave is near 37W from 08N to 17N, moving west near 15
kt. Scattered moderate convection is from 08N to 13N between
32W-44W.

A tropical wave is along 46W from 13N to 24N, moving west at 10
to 15 kt. Saharan Air surrounds this wave, and thus no significant
convection currently accompanies the wave.

A tropical wave is along 64W and S of 20N, moving west at 10 to
15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is along the wave axis and N
of 14N.

Looking ahead, a tropical wave is expected to move off the west
coast of Africa on Tuesday. Some development of this system will
be possible during the middle to latter part of the week while it
moves westward across the eastern and central tropical Atlantic.
The latest Tropical Weather Outlook gives this system a medium
chance of tropical cyclone formation through 7 days.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 20N17N and continues
southwestward to 10N44W. The ITCZ extends from 10N46W to 12N64W.
Scattered moderate convection is noted alond the ITCZ between 48W
and 54W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A low level trough over the northeastern Gulf extends from the
Florida panhandle area to near 26N92W. Scattered moderate
convection is noted with this trough. A 1023 mb Bermuda High
extends a weak ridge westward along 32N and inland across the
northern Gulf states, and drapped across the trough. This weak
pressure pattern across the Gulf is supporting mostly light to
gentle breezes and 1-3 ft seas across the basin. Moderate to fresh
NE winds are occurring across the western coastal waters of the
Yucatan Peninsula, ahead of a thermal trough there. Diffluent flow
aloft is supporting scattered showers and a few thunderstorms
across the central portions of the basin, and along the Mexican
coast between Cabo Rojo and Veracruz.

For the forecast, the surface trough will support scattered
showers and thunderstorms through today as the trough moves
inland. Similar activity is noted in the Bay of Campeche and SW
Gulf with the passage of a diurnal surface trough. The surface
ridge will dominate most of the basin through late Tue. This will
support gentle to moderate E to SE winds north of 24N with slight
seas. Pulses of fresh winds will occur north and west of the
Yucatan Peninsula and into the Bay of Campeche each evening and
night as a diurnal surface trough migrates from the Yucatan
Peninsula westward across the SW Gulf.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

Refer to the section above for details on the Gale Warning in effect
for the waters north of Colombia and the tropical wave moving
across the basin.

The pressure gradient between a 1023 mb high pressure located just west
of Bermuda and a 1008 mb Colombian low continues to support fresh
to strong trades over the south-central Caribbean south of 16N
and between 68W and 80W. Seas are 6 to 11 ft across much of this
area. Fresh to strong trade accompany a tropical wave across the
eastern Caribbean, to the N of 14N, where seas are 4 to 6 ft.
Active weather near the wave is described above. Moderate to fresh
trades are over the remainder of the E Caribbean while gentle to
moderate E winds are observed elsewhere. Seas are 2 to 5 ft with
these winds. Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms continue
between Cuba and Jamaica, across the Cayman Islands and regional
waters, including the Yucatan Channel, and are supported by upper
level troughing extending from the NE Caribbean west-
northwestward to the Yucatan channel.

For the forecast, the ridge N of the basin will gradually shift
southward to along 28N through Tue and maintain strong to near
gale-force winds offshore Colombia and in the Gulf of Venezuela
each night. Winds will pulse fresh to strong speeds during the
evenings and nights in the Gulf of Honduras and Windward Passage
through the forecast period. Otherwise, moderate to fresh trades
will prevail elsewhere. The Atlantic ridge will shift farther
southward later this week, which may combine with an approaching
tropical wave to increase easterly trade winds again across the
basin.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Refer to the section above for details on the tropical waves
moving across the basin.

Scattered showers continue off northeast Florida, N of 29N and W
of 80W, to the east of a low level trough moving across the NE
Gulf of America and extending into SE Georgia. A broad ridge
dominates the waters north of 25N across the basin, broken only by
a trough reaching from 31N49W to 27N56W. Saharan air and
suspended dust is evident east of this trough, north of 13N. The
pattern is supporting moderate to fresh trade winds south of 22N
and west of 55W into the E Caribbean, where seas are 4 to 7 ft.
South of 22N and east of 55W gentle to moderate trades prevail to
the Cabo Verde Islands, where seas are 4 to 5 ft. Fresh to strong
NE winds and 5-8 ft seas extend from the Canary Islands
southwestward to 20N. Elsewhere within the ridge, gentle to
moderate breezes and 3-5 ft seas prevail.

For the forecast west of 55W, scattered showers across the NW
zones off of Florida will diminish today as the surface trough
over the northeastern Gulf of America, continues to move NW away
from the area. The Bermuda High will shift southward to along 28N
through Tue. Fresh E winds will prevail N of Hispaniola and in
the approach to the Windward Passage through the period, pulsing
to strong speeds each evening and night. The Atlantic ridge will
drop a bit farther southward later next week, which may result in
stronger easterly winds.

1815 UTC Sun Aug 9 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1700 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A new tropical wave was analyzed at 1200 UTC along 18W, from 06N
to 17N. The wave is moving westward at 10-15 kt. Scattered showers
are seen near the wave axis.

A tropical wave is near 36/37W from 07N to 17N, moving west at
around 15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is from 09N to 14N
between 33W-41W.

A tropical wave is along 47W from 12N to 23N, moving west at
10-15 kt. Saharan Air surrounds this wave, and thus no significant
convection currently accompanies the wave.

A tropical wave is along 66W and S of 20N, moving west at 15 to
20 kt. Scattered moderate convection is in the eastern Caribbean
between 13N and the coast of Puerto Rico.

Looking ahead, a tropical wave is expected to move off the west
coast of Africa on Tuesday. Some development of this system will
be possible during the middle to latter part of the week while it
moves westward across the eastern and central tropical Atlantic.
The latest Tropical Weather Outlook gives this system a medium
chance of tropical cyclone formation through 7 days.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 19N16N and continues
southwestward to 11N45W. The ITCZ extends from 11N45W to 12N62W.
In addition to the convection discussed in the Tropical Waves
section above, scattered moderate convection is noted from 06N to
11N between 20W and 27W, as well as from 08N to 12N between 41W
and 55W.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

A surface trough over the northern Gulf supports scattered
moderate convection along the northern Gulf coast from SE
LA to the western FL Panhandle. More scattered moderate convection
is active over the Gulf W of 91W near the south end of this
trough, also enhanced by another surface trough in the SW Gulf and
a divergent pattern aloft. Scattered showers and thunderstorms are
also active over the FL Straits. A 1023 mb Bermuda High extends
a weak ridge inland across the northern Gulf states. This weak
pressure pattern across the Gulf is supporting mostly light to
gentle breezes and 1-3 ft seas across the basin. Moderate to fresh
NE winds are occurring across the western coastal waters of the
Yucatan Peninsula, ahead of a thermal trough there.

For the forecast, a surface trough extends from near Panama City,
Florida to 29N89W and to near 28N93W. Isolated showers and
thunderstorms are near the trough. The trough will move inland the
northern Gulf coast this evening. Otherwise, a surface ridge
extends from the Bermuda High westward across the northern Gulf,
and will dominate most of the basin through late Tue. This will
support gentle to moderate E to SE winds north of 24N with slight
seas. Pulses of fresh winds will occur north and west of the
Yucatan Peninsula and into the Bay of Campeche each evening and
night as a diurnal surface trough migrates from the Yucatan
Peninsula westward across the SW Gulf.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The pressure gradient between a 1023 mb high pressure located
just west of Bermuda and a 1008 mb Colombian low continues to
support fresh to near gale force trades over the south-central to
SW Caribbean. Seas are 7 to 11 ft across much of this area. Fresh
to strong trade accompany a tropical wave across the eastern
Caribbean N of 15N, where seas are 4 to 6 ft. Moderate to fresh
trades are over the remainder of the E Caribbean and the Gulf of
Honduras while gentle to moderate E winds are observed elsewhere.
Seas are 2 to 5 ft with these winds. Scattered showers and
isolated thunderstorms continue between Cuba and Jamaica, across
the Cayman Islands and regional waters including the Yucatan
Channel, and are supported by upper level troughing over the W
Caribbean.

For the forecast, the pressure gradient between a 1023 mb Bermuda
High and lower pressure in northern South America will continue
to support fresh to strong trades in the south-central and
portions of the SW basin will into the week. The associated ridge
will gradually shift southward to near 28N through midweek
maintaining strong to near-gale winds offshore Colombia and in the
Gulf of Venezuela each night. Winds will pulse up to fresh to
strong speeds during the evenings and at night in the Gulf of
Honduras and Windward Passage through the forecast period.
Otherwise, moderate to fresh trades will prevail elsewhere. The
Atlantic ridge will shift farther southward later next week, which
may act to increase the trades again across the basin.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Refer to the section above for details on the tropical waves
moving across the basin.

A broad ridge dominates the waters north of 25N across the basin,
broken only by a pair of troughs N of 26N between 48W and 59W.
Saharan air and suspended dust is evident south and east of these
troughs to as far sout has the monsoon trough and ITCZ. The
pattern is supporting moderate to fresh trade winds south of 22N
and west of 55W into the E Caribbean, where seas are 4 to 7 ft.
North of 22N and east of 55W gentle to moderate trades prevail to
the Cabo Verde Islands, where seas are 4 to 6 ft. Fresh to strong
NE winds and 5-8 ft seas extend from the Canary Islands
southwestward to 20N. Elsewhere within the ridge, gentle to
moderate breezes and 3-5 ft seas prevail.

For the forecast west of 55W, a weak trough along the U.S.
southeastern coast in combination with ample deep moisture in
place will help maintain scattered showers and thunderstorms
offshore northern Florida east to near 74W. Otherwise, the ridge
associated to high pressure of 1023 mb will shift southward to
along 28N through Tue. Fresh trades will prevail N of Hispaniola
and in the approach to the Windward Passage through the period,
pulsing to strong speeds each evening and night. The Atlantic
ridge will drop a bit farther southward later next week, which may
result in stronger easterly winds. Of note, a tropical wave is
expected to move off the west coast of Africa early in the week.
Environmental conditions are forecast to be conducive for gradual
development thereafter and a tropical depression could form during
the latter half of this week while the system moves generally
westward across the eastern and central tropical Atlantic.

Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
0015 UTC Mon Aug 10 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 1800 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
2300 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave is along 21W and extends from 06N to 17N. The
wave is moving westward at 10 to 15 kt. Scattered moderate to
isolated strong convection is ahead of the wave axis from 08N to
11N between 21W and 30W..

A tropical wave is near 36/37W from 07N to 17N, moving west at
around 15 kt. Scattered moderate to isolated strong convection
is from 08N to 14N between 35W and 44W. Some gradual development
of this system is possible during the early to middle part of
this week while it moves westward across the central tropical
Atlantic. Upper-level winds are expected to become less conducive
for development later in the week when the system approaches the
Lesser Antilles. The latest Tropical Weather Outlook gives this
system a low chance of tropical cyclone formation through 7 days.

A tropical wave is along 49W/50W from 12N to 23N, moving west at
10-15 kt. Saharan Air surrounds this wave, and thus no significant
convection currently accompanies the wave. A swirl of low clouds
is just ahead of the wave axis near 16N51W.

A tropical wave is along 68W and extends from the Mona Passage to
north-central Venezuela, moving west at 15 to 20 kt. The wave is
enhancing convection over parts of Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic,
the eastern Caribbean, and NE and north-central Venezuela.

Looking ahead, another tropical wave is expected to move off the
west coast of Africa early this week. Environmental conditions
are forecast to be conducive for gradual development thereafter,
and a tropical depression could form during the latter half of
this week while the system moves westward to west-northwestward
across the central tropical Atlantic. The latest Tropical Weather
Outlook gives this system a low chance of tropical cyclone formation
through 48 hours, and medium chance through 7 days.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of Mauritania
near 19N16W and continues southwestward to 11N45W. The ITCZ extends
from 11N45W to 12N60W. Aside from the convection associated with
the tropical waves, no significant convection is noted elsewhere.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

Showers and thunderstorms continues to dot the Gulf region, mainly
near west Florida and over the NW part of the basin. A diffluent
pattern aloft is helping to induce this convective activity. In
addition, a surface trough extending from near Destin, Florida
to 28N91W and to near 27N94W also supports scattered showers and
isolated thunderstorms. Convection has flared-up over the
Yucatan Peninsula and the NW Caribbean. A surface ridge extends
from the Bermuda High across Florida into the Gulf region, and
supports mostly light to gentle winds and slight to moderate
seas. Gentle to moderate SE winds are evident per scatterometer
data on the east side of a surface trough located over the central
Bay of Campeche.

For the forecast, the aforementioned surface trough that extends
from near Destin, Florida to 27N94W is expected to dissipate as
it moves inland the northern Gulf coast tonight. Otherwise, a
surface ridge will dominate the general wind flow pattern across
basin well into the week, generally supporting gentle to moderate
E to SE winds north of 24N along with slight seas. Pulses of
fresh winds will occur north and west of the Yucatan Peninsula
and into the Bay of Campeche each evening and night as a diurnal
surface trough migrates from the Yucatan Peninsula westward across
the SW Gulf.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The pressure gradient between a 1022 mb high pressure located
just south of Bermuda and a 1008 mb Colombian low continues to
promote fresh to strong trade winds over the central Caribbean,
with the strongest winds of 30 kt offshore Colombia. Seas are 8
to 11 ft with these winds. Mainly moderate to fresh winds are
N of 15N associated with the tropical wave located across the
eastern Caribbean. Seas are 4 to 6 ft. Similar winds speeds are
present across the Windward Passage. Gentle to moderate trades
prevail elsewhere, with moderate seas. Aside from the convection
associated with the tropical wave, scattered showers, with
embedded thunderstorms, are occurring over the NW Caribbean and
parts of Cuba.

For the forecast, the pressure gradient between a 1023 mb Bermuda
High and lower pressure in northern South America will continue
to support fresh to strong trades in the south-central and
portions of the SW basin will into the week. The associated ridge
will gradually shift southward to near 28N through midweek
maintaining strong to near-gale winds offshore Colombia and in
the Gulf of Venezuela each night, except Wed night. Winds will
pulse up to fresh to strong speeds during the evenings and at
night in the Gulf of Honduras and Windward Passage through the
forecast period. Otherwise, moderate to fresh trades will prevail
elsewhere. The Atlantic ridge will shift farther southward later
this week, which may act to increase the trades again across the
basin.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Three tropical waves are moving westward between W Africa and the
Lesser Antilles, and the National Hurricane Center is monitoring
a couple of areas with the potential of tropical cyclone formation.
Refer to the tropical wave section above for more details.

A weak trough along the U.S. southeastern coast in combination
with ample deep moisture in place are helping to support a band
of showers and thunderstorms offshore northern Florida east to
near 74W. Otherwise, a ridge dominates the remainder of the
Atlantic forecast waters. This pattern is promoting moderate to
fresh trade winds south of 22N and west of 60W, where seas are 4
to 6 ft. Moderate to fresh winds are near the tropical wave along
36W/37W. Moderate to locally fresh N to NE winds and 5 to 8 ft
seas extend from the Canary Islands southwestward to near 20N.
Elsewhere within the ridge, gentle to moderate winds and moderate
seas prevail.

For the forecast west of 55W, the weak trough offshore the U.S.
southeastern coast will help maintain scattered showers and
thunderstorms offshore northern Florida through tonight. The Atlantic
ridge will drop a bit farther southward later this week, which
may result in stronger easterly winds. Fresh trades will prevail
N of Hispaniola and in the approach to the Windward Passage through
the period, pulsing to strong speeds each evening and night.

Of note, a tropical wave is expected to move off the west coast
of Africa early in the week. Environmental conditions are
forecast to be conducive for gradual development thereafter, and
a tropical depression could form during the latter half of the
week while the system moves generally westward to west-northwestward
across the central tropical Atlantic.

Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
0615 UTC Mon Aug 10 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 0000 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
0330 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave is along 24W and extends from 06N to 18N, moving
westward at 10 to 15 kt. Scattered moderate isolated strong
convection is ahead of the wave axis, from 07.5N to 12.5N between
24W and 30W. Low pressure has formed in the lower levels ahead of
this wave, where the convection is occurring. This system is
forecast to move slowly westward and merge with the next tropical
wave to move off of Africa in a couple of days. Environmental
conditions are forecast to be more conducive for development by
midweek. A tropical depression could form during the latter half
of this week while the system moves westward to west-northwestward
across the central tropical Atlantic. The latest Tropical Weather
Outlook gives this system a medium chance of tropical cyclone
formation through 7 days.

A tropical wave is near 41W-42W from 07N to 17N, moving west at
around 15 kt. Scattered moderate isolated strong convection is
from 07.5N to 14.5N between 36W and 49W. Some gradual development
of this wave is possible during the early to middle part of this
week while it moves quickly westward across the central tropical
Atlantic. Upper-level winds are expected to become less conducive
for development later in the week when the system approaches the
Lesser Antilles. The latest Tropical Weather Outlook gives this
system a low chance of tropical cyclone formation through 7 days.

A tropical wave is along 52W from 13N to 24N, moving west at
15 kt. Saharan Air surrounds this wave, and thus no significant
convection currently accompanies the wave. A swirl of low clouds
is just ahead of the wave axis near 15N53W.

A tropical wave is along 71W and extends from the western
Dominican Republic to northwest Venezuela, moving west at 15 to
20 kt. Widely scattered moderate convection is noted behind the
wave, from 14N to 18.5N between 63W and 70W, including the Mona
Passage and coastal portions of the Dominican Republic. A cluster
of moderate convection is also noted across north-central Venezuela.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of Mauritania
near 20N16W and continues southwestward to 11N24W to 10.5N45W.
The ITCZ extends from 11N46W to 11.5N62W. Aside from the
convection associated with the tropical waves, scattered moderate
convection is noted from 07N to 11.5N between 36W and the coast of
Africa.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

Scattered showers and thunderstorms continue to dot the Gulf
waters, mainly near southwest Florida, the Yucatan Channel, and
over the NW part of the basin. A diffluent pattern aloft is
helping to induce this convective activity. Convection has also
flared-up over the Yucatan Peninsula and is slowly shifting
westward into the eastern Bay of Campeche. A surface ridge
extends from the Bermuda High west-southwestward across northern
Florida and across the northern Gulf along 29N. This pattern is
supporting mostly light to gentle winds and slight of 3 ft or less
over most of the basin. Moderate to locally fresh NE winds are
occurring across the nearshore waters along the N and W coast of
the Yucatan Peninsula, W of a surface trough over the Peninsula.
Moderate easterly winds and seas of 3 to 4 ft prevail across the
Straits of Florida.

For the forecast, the surface ridge extending across the northern
Gulf will dominate the general wind flow pattern across basin
well into the upcoming week, generally supporting gentle to
moderate E to SE winds north of 24N along with slight seas. Pulses
of fresh winds will occur north and west of the Yucatan Peninsula
and into the Bay of Campeche each evening and night as a diurnal
surface trough migrates from the Yucatan Peninsula westward across
the SW Gulf.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The pressure gradient between a 1023 mb high pressure located
just southwest of Bermuda and a 1007 mb Colombian low continues
to promote fresh to strong trade winds over the central Caribbean
between 66W and 80W, with the strongest winds around 30 kt
offshore Colombia and inside the Gulf of Venezuela. Seas are 7 to
10 ft with these winds. Winds have increased to strong near the
southern coast of the Dominican Republic, near the Barahona
Peninsula, as a tropical wave is morning through the area.
Scattered moderate convection trails the wave, as described above.
Mainly moderate to locally fresh winds are E of 66W across the
eastern Caribbean behind the tropical wave. Seas are 4 to 6 ft
there. Fresh to strong NE winds are also present across the
Windward Passage, where seas are 5 to 7 ft. Gentle to moderate
trades prevail elsewhere across NW portions, with moderate seas.
Aside from the convection associated with the tropical wave,
scattered showers and a few thunderstorms are occurring over
south coastal portions of Cuba, and in the Gulf of Honduras.

For the forecast, the pressure gradient across the Caribbean basin
will continue to support fresh to strong trades in the south-
central and portions of the SW basin will into the week. The
associated Atlantic ridge will gradually shift southward to near
28N through midweek maintaining strong to near-gale winds offshore
Colombia and in the Gulf of Venezuela each night. Winds will
pulse up to fresh to strong speeds during the evenings and at
night in the Gulf of Honduras and Windward Passage through the
forecast period. Otherwise, moderate to fresh trades will prevail
elsewhere. The Atlantic ridge will shift farther southward later
this week, which may act to increase the trades again across the
basin.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Three tropical waves are moving westward across the Atlantic between
W Africa and the Lesser Antilles. The National Hurricane Center
is monitoring two areas with the potential of tropical cyclone
formation during the coming week. Refer to the tropical wave
section above for more details.

A weak trough offshore of the U.S. southeastern coast in
combination with ample deep moisture in place is helping to
support a showers and a few thunderstorms well offshore of
northern Florida, N of 29N between between 72W and 77W.
Otherwise, a ridge dominates the remainder of the Atlantic
forecast waters, centered on a 1023 mb Bermuda High, and a 1024 mb
high near 28N38W. A weakening stationary front extends into the
area along 31N48W and disrupts the ridge there between 45W and
55W. This ridge is promoting moderate to fresh trade winds south
of 24N and west of 30W, where seas are 4 to 6 ft. Moderate to
fresh winds are near the tropical wave along 41W-42W. Moderate to
locally fresh N to NE winds and 5 to 9 ft seas extend from the
Canary Islands southwestward to near 19N. Elsewhere within the
ridge, gentle to moderate winds and moderate seas prevail.

For the forecast west of 55W, the western Atlantic ridge will
shift gradually southward to along 28N through Tue. Fresh trades
will prevail N of Hispaniola and in the approach to the Windward
Passage through the period, pulsing to strong speeds each evening
and night. The ridge will sink a bit farther southward later next
week, which may result in stronger easterly winds.

Of note, weak low pressure across the eastern Atlantic is
forecast to move slowly westward, and merge with a tropical wave
exiting Africa in a couple of days. Environmental conditions are
forecast to be more conducive for development by midweek. A
tropical depression could form during the latter half of this week
while the system moves westward to west-northwestward across the
central tropical Atlantic. There is a medium chance for tropical
development for this system within the next 7 days.

Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1215 UTC Mon Aug 10 2026

Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.

Based on 0600 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1000 UTC.

...TROPICAL WAVES...

A tropical wave is along 26W and extends from 08N to 17N, moving
westward at 10 to 15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is from
06N to 12N between 24W and 33W.

A tropical wave is near 43W from 07N to 17N, moving west at
around 15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is from 07N to 14N
between 39W and 50W.

A tropical wave is along 55W from 13N to 24N, moving west at 15
kt. Saharan Air surrounds this wave, and thus no significant
convection currently accompanies the wave.

A tropical wave is along 74W and S of 20N, moving west at 15 to
20 kt. No convection is noted in this wave's environment at this
time.

...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of Mauritania
near 20N17W and continues southwestward to 11N47W. The ITCZ
extends from 11N47W to 10N61W. Aside from the convection
associated with the tropical waves, no convection is noted at this
time.

...GULF OF AMERICA...

Scattered showers and thunderstorms continue to dot the Gulf
waters, mainly near southwest Florida, the Yucatan Channel, and
over the NW part of the basin. A diffluent pattern aloft is
helping to induce this convective activity. Convection has also
flared-up over the Yucatan Peninsula and is slowly shifting
westward into the eastern Bay of Campeche. A surface ridge
extends from the Bermuda High west-southwestward across northern
Florida and across the northern Gulf along 29N. This pattern is
supporting light to gentle winds and slight of 3 ft or less over
most of the basin. Moderate to fresh NE winds are occurring
across the nearshore waters along the N and W coast of the Yucatan
Peninsula, W of a surface trough over the Peninsula. Moderate
easterly winds and seas of 3 to 4 ft prevail across the Straits of
Florida.

For the forecast, the surface ridge will dominate the general
wind flow pattern across basin well into the upcoming week,
generally supporting gentle to moderate E to SE winds north of 24N
along with slight seas. Pulses of fresh winds will occur north
and west of the Yucatan Peninsula and into the Bay of Campeche
each evening and night as a diurnal surface trough migrates from
the Yucatan Peninsula westward across the SW Gulf.

...CARIBBEAN SEA...

The pressure gradient between a 1023 mb high pressure located
just southwest of Bermuda and a 1007 mb Colombian low continues
to promote fresh to strong trade winds over the central Caribbean
between 66W and 80W, with the strongest winds around 30 kt
offshore Colombia and inside the Gulf of Venezuela. Seas are 7 to
10 ft with these winds. Winds have increased to strong near the
southern coast of the Dominican Republic, near the Barahona
Peninsula, as a tropical wave is moving through the area.
Scattered moderate convection trails the wave. Moderate to fresh
winds are E of 66W across the eastern Caribbean behind the
tropical wave. Seas are 4 to 6 ft there. Fresh to strong NE winds
are also present across the Windward Passage, where seas are 5 to
7 ft. Gentle to moderate trades prevail elsewhere across NW
portions, with moderate seas. Aside from the convection associated
with the tropical wave, scattered showers and a few thunderstorms
are occurring over south coastal portions of Cuba, and in the
Gulf of Honduras.

For the forecast, the pressure gradient across the Caribbean basin
will continue to support fresh to strong trades in the south-
central and portions of the SW basin will into the week. The
Atlantic ridge will gradually shift southward to near 28N through
midweek maintaining strong to near-gale winds offshore Colombia
and in the Gulf of Venezuela each night. Winds will pulse up to
fresh to strong speeds during the evenings and at night in the
Gulf of Honduras and Windward Passage through the forecast period.
Otherwise, moderate to fresh trades will prevail elsewhere. The
Atlantic ridge will shift farther southward later this week, which
may act to increase the trades again across the basin.

...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

Three tropical waves are moving westward across the Atlantic between
W Africa and the Lesser Antilles. The National Hurricane Center
is monitoring two areas with the potential of tropical cyclone
formation during the coming week.

A ridge dominates the Atlantic forecast waters, centered on a
1023 mb Bermuda High, and a 1022 mb high near 28N36W. A weakening
cold front is analyzed N of 30N between 40W and 48W. The ridge is
promoting moderate to fresh trade winds south of 24N and west of
30W, where seas are 4 to 6 ft. Moderate to fresh winds are near
the tropical wave along 41W-42W. Moderate to fresh N to NE winds
and 5 to 9 ft seas extend from the Canary Islands southwestward to
near 19N. Elsewhere within the ridge, gentle to moderate winds
and moderate seas prevail.

For the forecast west of 55W, the western Atlantic ridge will
shift gradually southward to along 28N through Tue. Fresh trades
will prevail N of Hispaniola and in the approach to the Windward
Passage through the period, pulsing to strong speeds each night.
The ridge will sink a bit farther southward later next week, which
may result in stronger easterly winds.

Of note, a low pres system is forecast to move slowly across the
East Atlantic and merge with a tropical wave in a couple of days,
and environmental conditions are forecast to be more conducive for
development by midweek. A tropical depression could form during
the latter half of this week while the system moves westward to west-northwestward across the central tropical Atlantic. There is
a medium chance for tropical development for this system within
the next 7 days.
